Oxygenated/ozone-treated pools
Swimming in an oxygenated or ozone-treated pool is a treat compared with the average pool. The water is less chlorinated, which means your eyes don't get as sore, nor your skin as dry; your hair won't suffer as much either. It also seems to make it easier to swim for longer. The water feels fresher and cleaner than you may have been used to and it's so much easier and more pleasant to swim in that you find you swim a lot longer. There is also the advantage that you don't smell strongly of chlorine when you come out.
