No, you are not required to use a saltwater system with a saltwater-compatible pool. Our saltwater pool models can be used with traditional chlorine or alternative sanitizing systems, such as the Frog Pool Tender Fresh Mineral Water System.

Because saltwater can be more corrosive than traditional sanitizing methods, our saltwater-compatible pools are designed with enhanced corrosion-resistant components for added durability.

Choosing a traditional chlorine or mineral sanitizing system with a saltwater model can be an excellent option, as you benefit from the added corrosion resistance of a saltwater-compatible pool while using a less corrosive sanitizing system.
