Hello all. I just stumbled onto this forum and I'm looking forward to putting in a pool! I'm hoping to learn as much as I can about the pros and cons of the difference ideologies around SW pools, Chlorine Pools, this "Pool Prodigy" Technology, and the ECOsmarte Technology.
I grew up with a Chlorine pool and I remember the smell, the buring eyes etc.. etc.. EVERYONE is going Salt.. Only problem I see with salt is the issue with it attacking Natural Stone. We're going to do Flagstone coping and decking so salt scares me! I read a lot about this and I understand you can seal the stone to help slow the errosion attack. But most owners have given me feedback from their experience that this really doesn't help...
As I mentioned earlier, I'm looking for advice, coaching from professionals. The pool we have designed is 103' perimeter feet. roughly 22,500 gal not including the 7' x 9' spa. Also note, we're in the Houston Area so its HOT and Humid if that adds into your recommendations/advice...
Thanks all! Looking forward to the responses
