Health
Store-bought chlorine can sometimes cause skin irritations, red eyes, and allergic reactions, which are less likely to occur with a saltwater pool.
Cosmetic Effects
Anyone with blond or light red hair has experienced having his hair turn green after swimming in a chlorinated pool. With saltwater this does not happen.
Environmental Impact
Some people believe saltwater pools are more environmentally friendly, since fewer artificial chemicals are needed to maintain them.
Wear And Tear
Saltwater is harsher on the infrastructure of the pool and equipment than traditional chlorination. Thus repairs and replacement of parts will probably be more frequent.
Odor
Saltwater is considered by many to have a more pleasant, more natural aroma compared to the chemical smell of store-bought chlorine.
