Mineral vs. Salt Pools: Why Your Skin Will Thank You

We get asked this question almost every day: "Is a mineral pool really better than a salt pool, or is it just marketing hype?"

As pool professionals who have been in the industry for 12 years, here is the honest truth.

The Old Way: Standard Salt

Salt pools are basically just chlorine pools. The "salt cell" zaps the salt water and turns it into liquid chlorine to kill bugs.

It works, but it has side effects:

• It dries out your skin and hair (the "post-swim itch").
• It can fade your swimwear faster.
• It often has that strong chemical smell.

The New Way: Magnesium Minerals

Mineral pools still use your existing chlorinator, but they replace the harsh salt with Magnesium.

Science tells us that Magnesium is a natural muscle relaxant. It is absorbed through the skin, helping to soothe aches, relieve stress, and soften skin conditions like eczema.

But the real difference is the FEEL.

• The Texture: The water feels "heavier" and silkier. It doesn't stick to you.
• The Clarity: Magnesium interacts with water differently, often giving it a "diamond" sparkle that salt water just can't achieve.
• The After-Effect: When you get out, you don't feel the need to rush to the shower. Your skin feels moisturized, not stripped.

The Verdict?

If you want a pool that feels like a spa and doesn't leave you smelling like a chemical factory, Magnesium is the winner. And the best part? It costs about the same to run.
