Can the powder coaded models be used in a salt water Pool?

I do not know. I do not have a salt water pool. It would be best to ask the manufacturer. I was well pleased with the item.

This is a question for the manufacturer. The stainless tubing is highly resistant to corrosion but powder coating may strip off get estimate of life from any power coating company listed in your telephone book..

I do not know. My pool is not a salt water pool. The item in question is very nice and worked well.

This is designed for salt water - will work in fresh. Would not recommend trying a free water model in salt...

I don't see why not as it is a really heavy duty cast iron pump. Unless there is something about salt water I'm not aware of.

Yes, we have it installed in a salt water pool. The sensor tip is sealed in plastic.

A friend in MY who has an Intel salt water pool uses the solar cover. We have chlorine and use it and it really heats the pool so nicely and helps to minimize leaves and blowing dust from getting in the pool. I would recommend that you call a pool supply store to ask if the solar cover can be used with the salt water pool you have.

I too have a saltwater system. There are no exposed metal parts, everything is encased in an ABS enclosure and the moving parts, except for the shaft, are not metal. The chances of scaling with the circulator look to be the same as with any other type of return fitting. I have only had the circulator install for about two months, but so far the saltwater pool has had no adverse effects on the circulator system. I have three units installed and all work as advertised.

I do not see any reason why it would not work with saltwater due to no bearings to worry about and everything s plated or painted. All in all its a great unit to have. I liked it so well i now have 2 of them. One on each end of the boat.

I did and it was fine but I have a salt water pool, I'm not sure how it would hold up to chlorine though

Zodiac should speak to materials compatibility, but I have had no problems, and I have a saltwater pool. It is the quiet version of PB4-60 which was originally installed with my pool. It is very quiet. I have not seen any corrosion or deterioration externally.

Yes. We have a salt water pool. We love this thing! It has taken all the worry out of keeping our pool full.

The pump that came with our pool is a sand filter and yes, this will work with a salt system. I bought the Intex Salt System to go with it and so far, it's working great.

Yes it can be used for either above ground or inground pools. As long as it's plumbed correctly it doesn't matter.

Yes. I have used it in an in ground pool (was gunite) for a year or so, resurfaced to a PebbleSheen surface, and still use it.

Probably not, simply because of the timer that controls both the saltwater system and the filter at the same time. Before getting this pool we had a separate salt system and used the sand filter, but since this came with the all-in-one system we decided to try it. We haven't had any problems with the cartridge filter and haven't had to change the cartridge all summer. It has been a lot easier than trying to use the two systems.

I think you would be fine using this product with salt water pools that use the salt for chlorine generation. The product is mostly baking soda with water clarifier added in. The product does 3 things: increases pH, increases Alkalinity and adds clarifier to your pool water. I use this product with my outdoor pool which holds about 28,000 gallon and have been very happy with it. I add about 1 tablet of this per 4 tablets of 3 inch chlorine tablets that I put into my chlorinator. If you monitor your pool chemistry you could also periodically just add a tablet(s) when your pH and Alkalinity levels get low in your pool. You could also buy Arm & Hammer baking soda for Alkalinity adjustment with a separate pool water clarifier product and use them as directed to achieve the same end result.

I have used it in both a regularly chlorinated pool and a saline pool. Saline or salt water pools generate chlorine.
