+ Regarding chlorine / ozone: ozone destroys chlorine; chlorine destroys ozone; nuff said?
(But in case it's not enough: the successful European ozone systems for commercial indoor pools are very $$$ and supervisor intensive. The require a dechlorination stage / ozonation stage / filtration / deozonation stage / rechlorination. If you want to do that . . . it works well for indoor pools. Just be sure to budget for an operator salary. US UV based ozone systems are -- in my opinion -- a triumph of marketing over reason.)
+ Salt only rusts components that rust. (Duh!) If you use a salt system you have to use compatible components. Most -- like plastic pumps, stainless ladders and so on are standard. You must also use heaters with salt resistant exchangers. These are not readily available.
+ Salt can also cause some stone and concrete deterioration . . . if it concentrates. It does so in Arizona; it doesn't do so where it rains regularly.
+ Never liked fiberglass pools, but some have worked well. Liner pools are never as 'cool' as gunite, but good liner pools are lower maintenance than gunite.
+ What is a magnetic pump? (All electric motors are magnetic, but I assume you are referring to something different.)
