To keep the water clean, a hot tub's saline systems automatically generate chlorine from the small amounts of salt dissolved in the water. This method is much more effective than manually adding chlorine weekly. But the advantages do not stop there. Below are the top 11 benefits of salt electrolysis hot tubs, according to customer experience, and why the latest innovations are making the systems easier to use than ever.

Salt electrolysis hot tubs are gaining popularity as customers look for more natural ways to improve their health and well-being. Compared to the chemicals found in traditional chlorine-based systems, saltwater hot tubs offer a gentler and more relaxing spa experience. Moreover, they are also easier to maintain.

The multiple benefits of hot tubs with salt electrolysis treatment system

1.  Well improved condition

Salt water has a higher density than unsalted water, which favors buoyancy. Increased buoyancy reduces the weight of gravity on joints and muscles, easing tension while lifting the body and mind. Just 20 minutes of using a hot tub daily can transform muscle tension into comfort, calm a restless mind and improve overall well-being.

2.  Fewer chemicals

Salt water systems constantly monitor the chlorine level in the water, thus generating only the amount of chlorine needed. This means that fewer chemicals end up in the water, extending the period of use of the water until the next change. In addition, the water remains much cleaner and clearer compared to that sanitized using a traditional system.

3.  No chlorine smell

Salt water purification systems eliminate the "chlorine smell" that lingers in some pools and hot tubs. The smell is caused by chemical residues in the water due to inconsistent manual dosing of chlorine. Hydromassage tubs with a salt electrolysis treatment system maintain a constant level of chlorine that eliminates impurities. No chemical residues, no odors!

4.  Less irritation

Fewer chemicals also mean that saltwater spa minipools are less likely to irritate the skin and eyes. With an overall gentler experience, you can fully relax and enjoy all the benefits of wellness without any discomfort.

5.  Fewer drains

Hot tubs with a salt-based water treatment system – such as the new FreshWater® Salt System – can be emptied as little as once a year, compared to those using traditional chlorine-based sanitizing systems, which require a drainage three or four times during a year. Thus, the time spent on pool maintenance is significantly reduced and you gain precious moments to be able to fully enjoy the hot tub.

6.  Saving water

Because saline hot tubs require fewer drains and refills than traditional hot tub filtration systems, they use less water. This means that users of salt electrolysis hot tubs can enjoy the benefits of wellness while conserving a limited resource.

Hot tubs with a salt electrolysis treatment system are easier to use

Saline systems for hot tubs have been on the market for several years and successfully provide water sanitation with minimal chemicals. But one of the latest innovations, the salt electrolysis water treatment kit called the FreshWater Salt System has made using salt water mini pools even easier. In addition to the benefits already listed, here's how new saltwater systems make mini spa pools even easier to maintain and use.

7.  Accessible price

Due to superior design and carefully selected materials, the FreshWater Salt System kit costs less than other chlorine-generating salt systems.

8.  Replaceable titanium cartridges

The FreshWater Salt System uses titanium cartridges to convert salt to chlorine. They are designed to last four months with normal spa use and can be purchased in sets of three, so a single set can keep water clean for a whole year.*

*Factors such as the number of users or the chemical composition of the water can influence the period of use of the water until a new replacement. With proper hot tub maintenance, a 3-pack of cartridges along with the FreshWater Salt System will keep the water clean and fresh for an entire year.

9.  No tools required

Designed for easy handling, replacing a cartridge can be done in seconds. Simply remove the old cartridge right from the top of the mini spa, throw it away and replace it with a new one. No tools or dealer technical support required.

10. Simple instructions to follow

The FreshWater Salt System provides a simple way to maintain your hot tub water by displaying easy-to-read indications on the control panel. The hot tub will let you know when a cartridge needs to be replaced or the sanitizer level adjusted, giving you the opportunity to focus on relaxation and well-being, not water chemistry.

The basics of the FreshWater Salt System are simple. Check out the getting started guide for easy-to-follow steps.
