How Easy Is It to Change My Pool to a Mineral Swim Pool?

If you want to upgrade your swimming experience and reduce pool maintenance time and costs, converting your pool to a Mineral Swim pool is a simple and effective solution. Mineral Swim by Maytronics combines the natural benefits of magnesium-rich Dead Sea minerals with Ozone-to-Oxygen purification, creating a healthier and more luxurious swimming environment. But how easy is it to make the switch? Let’s break it down.

Why Convert to a Mineral Swim Pool?

Switching to a Mineral Swim™ system offers several advantages, including: 

  • Gentler on skin and eyes: Say goodbye to irritation caused by strong chemicals in traditional chlorine pools. Dermatologists worldwide recognise magnesium's healing effects on sensitive skin and its ability to soothe common conditions such as dermatitis, eczema, and psoriasis. 

  • Kills Bacteria: Unlike traditional chlorinators, Mineral Swim™ provides dual sanitation. Its powerful ozone purification eliminates harmful bacteria like Cryptosporidium and Giardia, offering superior water purity compared to chlorine alone. 

  • Natural water clarity: The system removes impurities, keeping your water crystal clear.  

  • Reduced chemical use: The Mineral Swim™ system uses Ozone purification, which will do most of the sanitiser work in your pool, allowing you to reduce chlorine levels by up to 80% and minimises the need for additional chemicals. 

  • Eco-friendly and sustainable: The Mineral Swim™ uses organic Dead Sea Minerals and natural ozone purification for an environmentally friendly and natural swimming experience.  

  • Healthier and luxurious swimming experience: Enjoy the therapeutic, health, and well-being benefits of swimming in magnesium-rich water. The Dead Sea mineral salts blend and natural ozone purification offer numerous health benefits, including improved skin texture and elasticity, hair softness, increased energy levels, and muscle and joint relaxation.  

How to Convert Your Pool to Mineral Swim

Converting your pool to a Mineral Swim™ system is straightforward and hassle-free. Here’s what’s involved: 

1. Assess Your Current Pool System 

The first step is evaluating your pool’s current setup. Mineral Swim™ is compatible with most standard filtration and sanitation systems, meaning you won’t need major modifications. 

2. Install the Mineral Swim System

A professional will install the Mineral Swim™ Control Unit and purification components and add the Dead Sea minerals to your pool. The process is quick and is usually completed within a day.  

3. Adjust Water Chemistry 

Once the system is installed, your Mineral Swim™ installer will test the water chemistry levels. Before starting the system, the water must be correctly balanced within the recommended ranges. Adjustments to chemical balance can take several hours.  

4. Enjoy Your New Mineral Swimming Pool 

With your new system up and running, you can immediately enjoy the benefits of softer, clearer, and healthier water. Regular water testing should be carried out to ensure the pool water is correctly balanced, but ongoing maintenance should be simple, with minimal chemical adjustments needed.
