What is the differece between the Krystal Klear saltwater system and the Ozone saltwater system?

Ozone system has a ozone generator to help kill bacteria in the water. But it only works on "boost" cycle. Just a fyi.

They are virtually the same, they each use a copper node of some type that helps kills stuff in the water. Sorry this is the off the cuff explanation. The saltwater system works in that it uses the salt to generate chlorine through titanium plates. The add the oxygenation to the water to help in cleaning. That's only what I have read. I highly recommend the newer version of the system that is pictured here. Much better than chlorine based systems.

Not sure what your asking. The unit shown here is a salt water generator which converts salt to chlorine and an ozone generator which adds ozone. It works great. Have not touched my water in nearly a year. Still crystal clear.

I don't know. I like mine. I can smell the chlorine in the water again when it's time to change the filter.

Since salt is TDS and it brings TDS's to zero I would say yes. But after living with the system I would say get a RO. Zero water was the most expensive water system I used. I got 5 gallons only from each filter, and they only last for 9 days regardless of water cleaned before the water start smelling like rotten fish I went with a good 5 stage RO and very happy with it.

Hi! Thanks for your question. Krill is a crustacean, which is a type of shellfish. We hope this information helps! -Rebecca

I do not have any experience with the type you are talking about. I do like the ozone feature on this one because I believe it helps reduce bacteria on the skin and in my sinuses. I am still very happy with my purchase.

I can't say because I've never used an ozone water generator. It is cheaper and seems to do the job adequately. Your choice would depend on how much money you want to spend and what use you have for the water.

The photocatalytic process does produce a small amount of ozone, but I too am wondering how much is produced by this specific model. It should not be as much as the ionizing filters produce.

I use the Salton in my hot tub and it doesn't have an Ozone generator. I don't think you need anything special to use this. You only need a place to plug it into.

I don't know. I also have a salt water pool, but the unit is time consuming for a large pool. It was easier for me just to use my vacuum.

Can not find that info on user manual, probably china. If shopping for a new RO system, I believe that the Kinetco system I had in my previous home was more cost effective in the long run. Filters are more expensive but last twice as long and water tastes better. I bought this one based on initial cost and filter replacement cost. Did not take in to account how often the filters need replaced

Any size, really, as the amount of water determines the amount of salt and the size of the pump. All the saltwater system does is convert the salt to chlorine. The water passes through so long as the pump runs but an auto timer determines the length of time the system generates chlorine. Fred

Intex Krystal Clear Saltwater works very well. Water stays clear and krispy without chemical treatment. We love it.

Chemicals used in the saltwater version are just pool salt. It comes in 40 pound bags. You also will need a certain fine grain sand (this goes inside your filter).

It's not like a salt Watersoftener but there are 80% less spots on the shower glass, car and the water feels way softer on the skin too. My wife has very sensitive hair and skin and we had a salt Watersoftener before. There is a difference but this waterfilter is very close. We changed the cartridge every 20.000 to 25.000 gal. The biggest plus in versus to salt Watersoftener, there is no waste water! You don't have to care about heavy salt bags and corrosion around the filter.

Yes. The only requirement for the original filter is that it must be able to provide the necessary water flow to the saltwater system. ( The saltwater system DOES NOT pump the water, the original pool filter does ). Therefore, they both must be run at the same time and at least for the same length of time ( the saltwater manual tells you all about it ). Usually, the pool pump must run an extra hour after the saltwater system finished its job.

I am not sure, as my pool is a chlorinated pool. I am going to change my pool to salt nest spring, so I would like to know myself.
