Can this kit be used with a saltwater filter?

Yes. I am using mine with a saltwater setup. We have a sand filter and we just turn the salt generator off while vaccuming the pool.

The filter will not remove salts in the water, so it'd be safe to assume that fluoride also will not be removed. You need a reverse osmosis setup for fluoride removal. I'd like to see an answer from Lifesaver on this just to be sure.

Most likely. It comes with a pretty decent filter and you can use a filter bag, the two together would be pretty good filtration.

Yes.If you research the manufacture there is some great info.Also if there is a lot of sand in the water it could affect the filters,you could look at installing sand filter

Yes you can add chemicals. The saltwater system converts the salt to chlorine so you would need some sort of chlorine tablets plus algaecide since your system is broke.

It has a sand filter that is designed for fresh water. It could be converted to salt bath at would require additional expense

I have no idea. I guess it would depend on the composition of the filter that you have. This is good stuff.

Even stainless steel can rust in salt water, so to answer your question YES it will if you don't take care of your kit...

No , for saltwater you need a bigger tank to do anything ,witch means a bigger filter

Yes, it can be used with a salt system. In fact it complements each other. The minerals help by stabilizing the water and having less of a demand on the chlorine generator.

Yes you can use it on a 55g salt water aquarium it will just take a bit for it to fill as it only creates 50gpd of water.

I don't use it in salt water. I am not sure if it is compatible or not. Recommend you check Minn Kota website.

No. This kit does not test for salinity and is designed for testing water in Marine Aquariums. You could use a TDS meter, I see Amazon does have specific Salt Water Pool Testers.

No just works with the filter but doesn't have that silky feel like salt water systems do.

I know nothing about salt water - but I have a 55 gal fresh water setup with a home made undergravel filter - just PVC pipes and the Cobalt Power head. It's been running for a few months now and I have not done anything with the tank or water and it's perfectly clear and the fish seem to be happy. So it works great for my setup.

You need a filter system and sand is the way to go for that , much better than paper filter. I wouldn't think that this would make enough difference to justify the cost over you salt water generator now. I am converting from chlorine to salt water.

I don't see why not. Just change water frequently and I definetly recommend a tiny sprinkle of salt in each water change.
