    SWC = Salt Water Chlorinator

    SWG = Salt Water Generator

    What is the difference? Absolutely nothing!!

    The terms are bandied about without really a proper definition, so this my attempt.

    A SWC implies that chlorination is the process that keeps the pool clean, by conversion of salt water to chlorine electrolytically.

    A SWG implies that chlorine is generated electrolytically from salt water to keep the pool clean as above.

    Which is the better definition?

    I personally prefer a SWC as it appears similar to having an in-line chlorinator, with either bleach or pucks.

    Hope this helps.
