A salt water chlorification machine (aka Chlorine Generator) makes
chlorine from salt water. Salt is sodium chloride. Remove the sodium and
you have chlorine.
The salt used is non-iodized salt that is almost 100% pure. You can use
regular water softener salt, but it works slower than granular salt.
The salt added to the pool is about the same as a water softener adds
salt to household water. There is no salt taste, smell, or feel.
