So you are thinking about switching to salt water in your swimming pool. This is one of the most common considerations that pool owners ask for opinions about and this is for two reasons. The first reason is simply that salt pools are very popular with pool owners and the people who love salt pools typically tend to be vocal about how much they like theirs. The second reason pool owners ask about salt water so often is due to the complex technical nature of the technology. Sprinkle in a healthy dose of general misinformation that exists openly about salt pools and you have a recipe for a decision that is hard for some pool owners to make. You want the benefits you have heard about salt systems, but you are concerned about some of the negative consequences of adding salt to your pool. Perhaps you have even heard of some salt related horror stories and this is deterring you from switching over to salt.
While I have written extensively about the subject of salt water systems in swimming pools on this website and in conventional print media, I tend towards speaking in general terms so as to appeal to a wide audience, and also to avoid alienating any one manufacturer versus another. For this reason I have written this paid content article about salt water systems in swimming pools so that I can offer my specific opinions about salt systems in general, who should get them, who should avoid them, but most importantly, which exact brand, make and model I endorse getting. This information should provide you with a great resource to help in making an informed decision on a complicated technical subject. This information includes:
- Why a salt system might be your best option
- Which pools should avoid getting salt
- Areas for concern for salt pools
- Sizing for salt water systems
- Recommendation for the best brand, make and model of salt system
Should you get salt water for your pool and if so, what mission critical information should you be aware of before you do? This buyer's guide and technical information from Swimming Pool Steve will help you to make a more informed purchase decision about salt water for your pool. See both the benefits and the potential concerns and read about which manufacturer of salt systems Steve thinks is a level above all the other options.
