Can you use these for a salt waterpool??

These tabs should work as a salt-water pool generates chlorine by breaking down sodium chloride into chlorine. You still need to measure PH, Alkalinity, etc. so I don't see why these would not do just fine.

Not to my knowledge in a true salt pool, only in a SWG pool. They provide great reading for everything other than salt in your pool. Funny, that you asked since I'm converting to a SWG in Spring 2015 and was wondering the same thing myself. Personally, a SWG is the same as a Chlorine chemical additive pool, just does it different, so readings should be the same using these. Only thing missing is Salt Content which I plan on using a separate test for. It covers all the areas beside lets us see the CYA level, Cyanuric Acid - Conditioner, or Stabilizer, is since... SWG pools generate only chlorine. Hope this helped. Not to my knowledge in a true salt pool, only in a SWG pool. They provide great reading for everything other than salt in your pool.

Yes, it can be used for salt water, it has sealed bearings. Just rinse it off with fresh water after you use it.

Hi, this is Steve at aqua Products. Our units work well in salt water pools but like standard chlorine pools, it's best if you do not leave them in longer than necessary - a good fresh water rinse is always welcome too.

Have not read anything that said it was for one type of water or another. Considering how it works I do not see how it could harm your salt environment, but you may want to check with the company who makes these to be on the safe side.

I am not sure if this can be used for salt water pool check. I recommend searching for "salt water test strips". I think you would want to check for sodium chloride levels which this product does not check for.

I never got to use them in the pool but my assumption is that they can be used in shallow waters as long as your feet are not touching the bottom of pool or water environment, you need enough space at the bottom in order to aqua-jug while you are floating

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.

I think you could use them in an aquarium. Never thought of using them for that, myself, but a good idea. I would expect since they are a type of 'rock' they should sink, which would be perfect. Think I will put a couple in my own aquarium!

my grandkids have had them in the bathtub ...so, I don't see why a pool would be different. We use them at the beach ...a lot!

I purchased these to be used for normal lighting (i.e. ceiling lighting). I have never used them under water. Given the how these are made, I really doubt that they are made to be used under water. I would be careful.

I would think you could. They work very well and are lightweight to move. They do stay filled quite a while once activated and you may need to adjust how they are stacked to balance. They keep the water well away from your house during flood weather.

Yes... That's what I use them for. There good for both salt and freshwater.

I haven't tried it with salt water, nor at that temperature, Sorry. It appears the internal vanes are plastic so the temperature might be a problem. Salt water shouldn't be a factor as long as it's rinsed with fresh water afterwards. Good luck.

The ffilters are micro filters for bacteria and particulars in the water. Salt would not work very well. I feel that it would real break the filters or gum them up

I would say yes. I use it in a salt water swimming pool, but have not used it in the ocean. The device is sealed and should not let in any water, salt or otherwise. If you are worried about effect of salt remaining on the surface and drying out there, wash it off after use. Additionally, the instructions coming with the device do not contraindicate use in salt water.

You can do saltwater in this pool but it requires a special pump that has to be ordered seperately. The pump that comes with with pool is only for clorinated water and will not work with salt water. You can contact Intex.com directly to order a salt water pump but they are not cheap! These pools get leaks and after a couple of years the liners have to be replaced and they cost about $200 and you can't get the liner from any other pool supplier but Intex. They have made sure of that so they control the pricing. So if the liner lasted longer I would invest in a saltwater pump however....I am not sure it is worth it to do. You will have a lower maintenance pool and much cleaner healthier water. You can do saltwater in this pool but it requires a special pump that has to be ordered seperately.
