We are just starting into our pool build and we found a new pool builder. The new pool builder is much more knowledgeable, he is the pool builder the owner of the company him and his son do all of the service. I much prefer talking to someone who knows what they are talking about, over a shiny shoe salesman who just hires out the construction work and doesn't know a darn thing about it. The only problem is the new pool builder doesn't sell salt water systems and tells me I will have problems with SWG and it will end up costing me more in the long run. So I thought I would bring to the true experts here on TFP. Does anyone have anything bad to say about salt water pool? I have had numerous different pool houses tell me numerous different things that are bad, but nobody that owns a salt water pool has anything bad to say. Below is some of the things I have been told.
Salt water is to corrosive on everything
My opinion is Baloney Sandwich
The entail cost out way the saving
From what I have seen the entail costs are not the great
It is not the much less maintenance
The people I talk to disagree
New PB says the SWG will plug up after a 5-10 years and cause major issues.
????????
New PB says a chlorinator works just as well
??????
New PB says chlorine is the same maintence and SWG does not make pool water any more stable. He says with large swim parties water will turn green
???????
New PB says SWG is a fad the will fade with time has told me that it has come and gone many of time throughout the years.
Whats everybody else thoughts I only want to have to do this once its going to be a lot of money don't want to waste any of it.
