Saltwater pools and chlorine pools both sanitize with chlorine. The difference is how that chlorine gets into the water. A saltwater pool uses a salt chlorine generator to make its own chlorine from dissolved salt, which means softer water and less hands on chemical work. A traditional chlorine pool costs less to install and gives you faster, more direct control over sanitizer levels, which matters more than most homeowners expect once Tampa’s summer storms show up. Both are excellent options, and the right one depends on how you want to spend your time maintaining it.
