Do I need an outdoor mister if I have a pool?

Q: Is it worth converting to a saltwater pool?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pool-remodel-cost.htm">Pool remodel costs</a> average over $9,000, so what about converting your pool to salt water instead? It is certainly an investment on the front end, but homeowners stand to save money on maintenance by switching to a saltwater pool. You will need to replace the salt cell every five years or so, but you will not have to clean your pool as frequently, either. The smell of chlorine also will not be on your swimsuits or skin, which is a benefit many appreciate.</p></div>

Q: Should I dilute baking soda before adding it to my pool?

• <div><p>You don&rsquo;t need to dilute the baking soda before adding it to your pool. While you can if you want, adding too much water into your pool can throw off your math and chemicals. Your pool&rsquo;s circulation system will do most of the dissolving work for you, so it&rsquo;s OK to skip the dilution.</p></div>

Q: Are plunge pools high maintenance?

• <div><p>You can spend less time and money on plunge pool maintenance since they are smaller than standard pools. These pools are easier to clean and maintain yourself than a swimming pool. But like any pool, you&rsquo;ll need to clean the pool walls and floor, balance the chemicals, check the electrical equipment, make necessary repairs, etc. </p></div>
