It’s a question we’re often asked. What are the common issues owners of pools face when they use a saltwater chlorinator?

Bear in mind that salt is often mistakenly blamed, when other issues are actually responsible. So make sure your chemistry values are correct before you turn your wrath on salt!

And also know that salt systems have been used in pools since the 1960’s, and have proven to be a safe and reliable means of pool water treatment. In fact, the majority of pool owners who have switched from traditional chlorine treatment systems to SCGs say they will never go back.

But yes, sometimes salt can be a factor in pool issues.

The most common is that salt can contribute to corrosion issues. It’s obvious really. Just ask anyone who lives along the coast and they’ll have no end of stories.

So, can your pool woes be caused by salt? Sometimes. But keep on top of proper operating conditions and maintenance for trouble-free salt-chlorinator operation.
