    Quoted from metallik:

    Meanwhile pool chlorine is clocking in at 50-100% more than last year.

    Tell me about it. And go read the pool forums where people complain just as they do on Pinside. "People are hoarding!" "The pool companies are gouging us!" "They know we NEED this stuff!" I mostly use liquid chlorine, although it went up in price significantly as well.

    Quoted from Lermods:

    switch to salt, $6 a bag, need maybe three bags a season at most.

    Some of us have stainless steel paneled pools and can't use salt generators. Never mind SWG's have other cons.

    Quoted from Lermods:

    the amount of salt in a pool will not harm those panels, its less than one tenth of the amount you’d find in the ocean. I see no downsides to salt pools. We’ve literally added nothing but a couple of bags of salt all season and that’s only because we’ve had a ton of rain, levels stay very constant, water is crystal clear, very soft. Highly recommend it.

    I contacted the manufacturer and they did not recommend using a SWG with these panels and coping.

    My issue with SWG is the cost of the generator every 3-5 years and that its only making chlorine while the pump is running. I don't mind liquid and switching to tabs for when Im away. And I like being able to introduce a bunch of chlorine all at once.

    If I had a gunnite or fiberglass pool I may feel differently about the pros of a SWG.
