Mike,

I have been using a SWCG since April of 1998. In addition to what is on my signature, there are stainless steel handrails for the steps and deep end.

In all those years I have never seen any signs of corrosion/erosion on the pool.

The only time you have to be careful is when you add granular salt. You have to make sure that there are none left on the concrete coping that you may have, as was mentioned it will create a mark.

I have written a post in this forum on SWCG Operation that I hope will help you in your decision.

BTW, the reason the pool companies don't like SWCGs is because it takes away from their chlorine sales. The SWCG gives a more reliable and constant source of chlorine.

Also as the cost of electricity starts to go up through the years, the liquid chlorine that you buy as bleach, or other forms will start to go up in comparison to what the SWCG can do.

Hope this helps in your decision, and let us know what you decide.
