Both sales rep claim they have pools. One has Ozone, the other is just old school setup w/ chlorine.

Either go with ordinary chlorine--you don't even need an automatic chlorinator, adjustable floaters do the same job for $15--or go with an SWG. SWG uses salt to generate chlorine because salt is...Sodium Chloride. As for salt water eating your pool, it will be FAR less salt than the ocean. In fact, you may not even be able to taste the salt in the water.

Two of the sales reps we talked to HAD ozone and stopped using them because they said that they didn't work and the maintenance was a lot more work (I don't know why - just what I was told). I think there is some information on poolsolutions.com on the ozone and what it does and what is doesn't do.

I don't think anyone here will personally benefit from you using chlorine, we are just giving you information we have heard from others or our own personal experiences.

Good luck on the pool purchase!
