I think you'll get an earful here that SWGs don't contribute much if any to any sort of breakdown or corrosion around a pool. The salt in an SWG pool is about 1/10 that of seawater. My flagstone is coming apart. Only the coping, not the same stone elsewhere in my yard. It was coming apart before I ever got into SWG and salt water. I can't say it's any better or worse now that I'm running salt. And it's pretty common for PBs to shy away from SWGs.
But here's the rub. All pools are saltwater pools! The chlorine your dumping into your pool, and acid, the humans you allow, and other things, too, are all leaving salt behind in your pool. And it doesn't evaporate. A little splashes out, but your pool is accumulating salt right now (and some probably comes in with your fill water). My pool had enough salt in it to be an SWG pool before I even added a bag of salt! So you're pool's surroundings are going to be subjected to salt water one way or another.
Granted, an SWG pool will have some amount more salt than an non-SWG pool, but enough to make a difference?
Unless you're willing and able to change out water every year or so, your stone is going to be subjected to saltwater. Might as well make it easy on yourself. I always manage to work in the following brag: since installing my SWG and Pentair IntellipH, I haven't poured in an ounce of anything into my pool. For months! I can skip testing for days if I get lazy. I just got back from a five-day trip, pool tested perfectly. Imagine a life without chlorine jugs!! Have you tried to leave your pool for a few days yet? How are you planning to be able to?!?
Oh, here's another plus for SWG: they dispense a little chlorine many times throughout the day. Instead of dumping in two gallons in the morning, spiking your FC, and then having that get used up throughout the day to end up low on chlorine by evening time, an SWG is maintaining a very constant FC level throughout the day. And because of that, you can lower your target FC level a bit. So you never have a big load of extra chlorine in your pool.
The downsides? You have to run your pump for quite a few hours each day. In your case, that might be many hours of the day. That will impact your electrical bill some amount. More if you don't have a variable speed pump. Along with the SWG output requirement, that can all be calculated ahead of time to give you an idea of how an SWG will work and cost in your pool. Also, an SWG can't be used in cold water. So for many of us, come winter time we have to revert to manually dosing chlorine. But in the winter the chlorine consumption drops, so it's not like doing it in the summer.
