Frequently Asked Questions — Salt Chlorinator India
Everything Indian pool owners, hotel managers, and builders ask before switching to a chlorine free pool system:
What is the difference between a chlorine free pool and a saltwater pool?
They are the same thing. A saltwater pool uses a salt chlorinator to generate chlorine naturally from salt. It is called “chlorine free” because you never add chemical chlorine manually. The pool still contains a small amount of natural chlorine — but generated gently and automatically rather than added as a harsh chemical.
Is saltwater pool water safe for children in India?
Yes — and it is recommended for children who swim regularly. Salt at 4–5 g/L is almost identical to human tears. No stinging, no rash, no harsh smell. Many paediatricians recommend saltwater pools over traditionally chlorinated pools for children with sensitive skin or respiratory sensitivities.
How much does a salt chlorinator cost in India?
The Aqvastar Minisalt is the most accessible option for home pools. The Justsalt range serves commercial pools. Contact Aqvastar at aqvastar.in for pricing specific to your pool volume — prices vary by model and the team will recommend the right size for your exact pool.
Can a salt chlorinator be installed in my existing pool without renovation?
Yes. Both Justsalt and Minisalt retrofit directly into any existing pool’s filtration system. The electrolytic cell clips inline in your pipe. The controller mounts on a wall. No pool drainage, no structural changes, no renovation required. Installation is typically completed in 2–3 hours.
Will a salt chlorinator work in India's hard water regions?
Yes — and it actually works better than traditional chlorine in hard water. Both Justsalt and Minisalt feature self-cleaning electrolytic cells with automatic polarity reversal to prevent calcium scale buildup. This is especially important for pools in Delhi NCR, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and other hard water regions of India.
Does Aqvastar support installation across all of India?
Yes. Aqvastar provides supply, installation, and after-sales service for Justsalt and Minisalt across all major Indian cities. Contact aqvastar.in for a site consultation anywhere in India.
