Doughboy offers a better alternative to salt through our exclusive Dual POOL FROG unit. Not only is the POOL FROG unit less expensive than a salt system, it also balances your water so you spend less time maintaining the pool and more time enjoying it!
POOL FROG Mineral SystemWhy Minerals are a Better Choice than Salt
Uses chlorine to sanitize pool water.Minerals use 50% less chlorine. Salt chlorine generators are 100% chlorine!
Creates soft, clear water that's easier on eyes and skin.Minerals improve water quality by reducing harsh chlorine. Salt chlorine generators do it by producing pure chlorine.
Eliminates storage of big chlorine buckets.Minerals use light weight pre-filled chlorine pacs for no mess. Salt chlorine generators manufacture chlorine on site.
Less work to maintain the pool.Minerals are set-it-and-forget-it for weeks at a time. Salt chlorine generators require regular pH and chlorine monitoring.
Eliminates extreme chemistry conditions.Minerals reduce chlorine to 0.5ppm. Chlorine levels at the salt chlorine generator cell can be as high as 50ppm.
No sticker shock when replacing components.Minerals cost about $100 per season while salt chlorine generator cells can cost up to $1500 every 3-5 years.
No potential for rapid corrosion.Minerals do not stain or corrode. Salt chlorine generator pools experience corrosion of stone work and metal parts including the pool frame.
Eliminates warranty concerns on steelwalled pools.Mineral Cyclers have a 10 year warranty. Many above ground manufacturers void their warranty if a salt chlorine generator is used.
pH stays in range with less monitoring.Minerals absorb acids to keep pH in line. Salt chlorine generators constantly raise pH.
No regular cleaning to ensure performance.Mineral Cyclers have nothing to clean. Salt chlorine generator cells must be cleaned with acid regularly.
Saves money annually with no electricity costs.Mineral Systems use no electricity so they save money over salt chlorine generators.
