a straight Chlorine pool is easy and does not cost much to start with.
Salt (Sodium chloride) water pools are also chlorine pools but they use the salt in the pool to make chlorine using an electrode designed to do that job. however the water can not be reused when back washing the filtration system.
Salt (Magnesium chloride and potassium chloride) work like a normal salt pool only the salt is not harmful and can be beneficial to swimmers as well as the back wash being good for plants in the yard so no water need go to waste.
Ozone requires special equipment but is reputed to be a very good sanitation method without the irritating effects of chlorine.
Salt water pools are chlorine pools, the difference is that a fresh water pool has chlorineadded by the operator, while a salt water pool has a chlorine generator that electronically creates chlorine while the filtration system is running I does this by separating chlorine gas out of the salt in the water and dissolving it back into the water. most salt water chlorinator pools use common salt or sodium chloride, which is the same as the salt found in sea water, only at a much lower concentration. A new system is available now that that uses magnesium chloride and sodium chloride, the advantage with this is that it is not harmful to use the backwash for watering the garden and it has a therapeutic effect on swimmers.
A SALT POOL IS THE SAME AS A CHLORINE POOL. however, instead of adding the chlorine manually it is manufactured automatically by the chlorine generator. Please read the manual .
Don't tell anybody but I love salt generators. I am a pool remodeling contractor and I make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year repairing the damage these things do. Unfortunately many contractors are now taking them off their pools at home after seeing the damage they do and are now requiring their customers to sign hold harmless waivers absolving them of responsibility for any damage caused by the salt or the generator.Yes, you can. We have a pool in Crete that uses salinated water. You need a special system that converts some of the salt into chlorine. This means that the water is much less chlorinated than most standard pools. Our system has worked really well through one complete season with temperatures in the high 30's (Centigrade!). You still need the chlorine to some extent as this is the fungicide.
I do not think it appropriate here to push one system over any others, but our originates in Australia, and works really well.
Pools used in Olympic competitions are filled with chlorinated fresh water.
Don't know what you mean by how much. How much does it take to bring the level up between 1.5-3.5ppm. You can go to the below link for your information.
Good luck
