Hi there, this is my first post on the poolspaforum... hoping I can get guidance and education here.
I have recently bought a house with an older chlorine pool (in ground, 20X40, 35,000 gallons). The home I currently live in has a salt water pool and I know that I don't want to go back to the 'old' ways! What do I nee to know and do in order to convert this new pool to a salt water system? What would the costs be (ballpark)? What are the dangers/pitfalls and things precautions that I need to take? I seem to see Hayward as the primary retailer of saltwater converters - is this the best? Are there others I should consider?
While my husband is a capable and handy guy, if this is more than just a simple installation process (ie, there is high potential for costly or dangerous mistakes or it is just a lot of technical work), should I get getting a pool company or a pool electrician to install it?
Thanks for the input!!
