What to know before you brief builders
Chlorine generated from salt - softer water, less handling. Here is the local context that shapes a quote.
It still uses chlorine
A saltwater pool generates chlorine from dissolved salt rather than dosing it directly. The water feels softer and you handle less chlorine, but it is not chlorine-free.
Compare with mineral systems

FAQ
Saltwater Pools questions homeowners ask
A saltwater pool feels softer on skin and eyes and you handle less chlorine day to day, because the chlorinator makes it from salt. A traditional chlorine pool has a lower upfront equipment cost. Our saltwater versus chlorine guide compares both neutrally.
