Can you make it a salt water pool?

Yes!! We just put a bag and a half of the salt for water softeners that you can buy at a hardware store. It worked really well. I believe you need to have a special salt-water pump, though, which Intex sells. Trying to use salt water with a normal pump might cause damage.

I use Bromine in a floater because I don't like Chlorine or salt. Yes, you can use a salt watersystem. Remember to drain and clean pool and system completely if you change from onesystem to another.

Yes and a lot of it, depending on your pool size. When we purchased the Solaxx CLG10A, we had to add several hundred pounds of salt for our above ground pool.

To the best of my knowledge it can be us on any above ground pool. We love it, maybe a bag of salt once a year and thats all we do. Saves so much money

Yes, you absolutely can and should be doing so. If you look at the specifications, the pool filtration process is longer than the chlorination process. On a daily basis the pool filter pump should be running longer than the salt water chlorinator. The water passes through the salt water chlorinator but without the electric charge it is just doing that, passing through.

I don't see why not....I just used it for a pool for my young grandkids and they loved it.

Yes, if you add water to disolve the salt, as you don't want to scratch your face. It's a very nice dead sea salt bath.

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

Im sure you can. You just have to be inventive on your mounting. I warn you that these machines dont last very long with all the salt we use in the Mid-Atlantic area! I have repaired my twice in 2 years and I keep it well oiled.

If your just starting up with no salt in the water yet. You will need 250 pounds of pool salt

You can try, but it works better the higher you fill it. 3/4 would work, and it shouldn't be too high for your children. It is a great pool, though.

It is doing an awesome job on my 13,500 gallon pool so I would say yes. It will take 160 lb. to 200 lb. of pool salt to start then it will go most of the summer w/o adding any more salt. aAll we have had to do to ours is clean it once a month.

I would recommend a better pool pump and sand filter. The system my not be moving the water around enough for the salt water system which will cause it to fail.

We have a salt water pool and have had no problems at all! However one of our neighbors ended up getting some special screws-I believe they were some form of acrylic. They have a chlorine pool. I hope this helps. Tiffany

I would think you could use it with salt water since all internal working parts that the salt water can come into contact with is plastic.

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