Belews Landing Pool
About the Pool
Our pool is 45 ft x 25 ft with an additional 18 ft x 10 ft paddling area. The depth of the main pool is 3 ft 6 in at one end and 6 ft at the other end. It holds 40,150 gallons of water.
The Belews Landing pool is a salt water pool filled with a mild salt solution. Swimmers sometimes enjoy salt water pools because the water feels softer and gentler than that in some other types of pools. Salt water pools are not chlorine free, but it is not necessary to add chlorine to the pool. Instead, using a device known as a chlorine generator, the pool makes its own chlorine products for hygiene though electrolysis, which breaks down the salt. Periodically, salt must be added to the pool to keep the salt solution strong enough for the chlorine generator to work. When a salt water pool is maintained properly, it should stay clean and safe to use, and it lacks the strong odor associated with chlorinated pools.
