supposedly. I think it uses a small electric current to break the salt in to sodium and chlorine and the chlorine kills germs before it rebonds with the sodium.

Yea I Watched A Program On It Also-just Keeps Working Over & Over
GOT TO RE READ THE THING THOUGH I MIGHT HAVE THE % WRONG
MIGHT BE ,003% WHICH IS JUST OVER 22 lbs
that sounds kind of realistic because think of a watter softner and the # of gallons that treats

Have either of you two actually been to the ocean and seen a stagnant pool of seawater? That's essentially what you'll have if you don't pump and filter that pool water. Those pools of seawater smell 1000 times worse than any fresh water! Try it, maybe you'll have an inland salt water marsh!

Evening all.

Yea, about a month ago. It was a nice week in Florida.
A couple years back, I was on the beach in Brunei. I have also hit the beach in Yarmouth, UK and Norway. I have been on a beach or two.

25# of salt in 8000# of water is about 1/3% (.3125% exact)
