Saltwater Vs Freshwater (Chlorinated) Swimming Pools

Post by aragon »

Who thinks what about which?? I've always disliked the thought of saltwater pools, but I know some people prefer them and I believe these days they are being marketed as better for your skin.........what's people's opinion??
Any idea on which type of pool is cheaper to maintain?? :idea: :cheers:

As our grandchild is very sensitive to chlorine and the saltwater-pools use also chlorine (generated out of the salt), I use now a chlorine-free pool. Ask Platinum Pool about it. I like it very much, because the water is much softer and the grandchild does not have problems any more.
