Logistically it would almost HAVE to be salt water. Actually, salt (NaCl) is already sodium chloride. Chlorine is chlorine without the sodium attached. You probably don’t want free sodium mixing with water under non-controlled circumstances, either. I won’t tell your customers… ---

We sell chemicals, do service work, and manage condominium pools that have no staff to take care of them. I actually just landed the premier community down there. $40,000 contract, 2 lifeguards, etc, so all is looking well this summer! ---

Salt water is better for your skin and totally free. The Ocean takes care of keeping it clean so instead of having ridiculous maintenance costs and chemical agents for a 9900000000900 gallon pool, they can just recirculate it back out into the ocean. That seems a lot easier to me. The same concept is used in pools and hot-tubs on cruise ships. ---

I highly doubt it’s just Ocean water with no sort of filtration or disenfection, but I could be wrong. :dunno: ---
