Salt Water Pool Setup and Maintenance in Bakersfield

First things first--what exactly is a salt water pool, and is it the right choice for me?

Most people think of  ocean water when they hear "your own salt water pool in your yard". However, what the "salt" means is the phrase refers to using a salt chlorine agent to sanitize the pool.

Salt is said to be a more natural way to cleanse and sanitize a pool, as opposed to other chemicals that are used to keep your pool in a balanced state.

Some considerations to think about when considering if a salt water pool is right for you:

• The initial cost: to get your salt water pool going, you'll need to invest in a salt water generator that you will keep in your pool the whole season. These can cost between $600-$1400 dollars depending on the size needed and the brand you choose. You will also have the upfront cost of purchasing bags of salt for the initial sanitation process.
• Replacing the salt cell: you'll need to replace the salt cell generator every 3-5 years. These replacements can be anywhere from $400-$800. For pool cleaning in Bakersfield, a warmer area (especially during summer), you may need to replace the cell more often.
• Salt water replaces chlorine, not other chemicals such as pH balancers, alkalinity, calcium hardness, etc. You'll still need to shock your pool as well.
• Salt in general can corrode certain equipment and pool decks. For that reason, it's important to make sure your pool is not "over-salted", like a bad pretzel.​
