I am so torn!! More so since finding this great forum and reading through the Pool School. Anyway here is my situation. I have a above ground pool(sunk in the ground) that holds 16,860 gallons with a 1.5 HP Hayward pump pushing 70 GPM, 4200 GPH.
My question is will the Intex saltwater system work with my pool? Is it worth it?
One of the item descriptions state "Requires a filter pump with a flow rate between 500- 4,000 Gallons per hour"...mine is pushing 4200 GPH. Not that much difference but still. The chart on the intex box that tells how much salt to add goes up to 14,364 gallons, the biggest pool they sell.
I am DONE spending $$$ on commercial chemicals and have been holding out on buying that $100+ bucket of clorine pucks from Home Depot, it just hits me in the gut every time. Since reading the BBB article on here I am at a total crossroad. Go salt or leave it alone.
Thanks in advance!!!!!!
