If you plan on having a chlorine pool, you can use pool systems and products to reduce the chlorine content damage to the environment. To have a greener pool designed for your home, you should consider the following swimming pool alternatives:

The salt water pools use generators to allow electric currents to flow through you pool water so that microorganisms, bacteria and algae are killed. There is no need to purchase chlorine for salt water pools.
Ozonators
This kind of pool permits sunlight to disinfect the pool any time the ultraviolet rays come in content with oxygen. Ozonators can kill bacteria, mold, mildew and even common viruses found in swimming pools. Swimmers prefer ozonators over chlorine pools because the soft water does not irritate the skin or eyes.
