Will my saltwater pool water taste salty?

• <div><p>No, you shouldn’t be able to taste the salt at all since saltwater pools only contain about 10% of the salt you’d find in ocean water. Saltwater pools do create some chlorine, though, so you should still try not to drink the water.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between an endless pool and an infinity pool?

• <div><p>While often confused with an endless pool, an infinity pool features a slim outer edge to trick the eye and create the appearance that the pool blends with the sky. An endless pool, on the other hand, is a small pool with a propulsion system that allows swimmers to swim against a current. These two <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pool-types-cost-decks-and-other-options.htm">types of pools</a> have similar names but very different designs.</p></div>

Q: How does a saltwater pool convert chlorine?

• <div><p>The generator in your saltwater pool conversion kit transforms sodium chloride&mdash;the same salt as table salt&mdash;into chlorine. A process called electrolysis sends electricity through the water to interact with the chlorine ion. This ultimately creates the chlorine that keeps your pool safe and clean. The cell in your saltwater chlorine generator is the part that converts the salt into chlorine.</p></div>

Q: Are pool pumps supposed to make noise?

• <div><p>Yes, it's normal for pool pumps to make noises&mdash;like a humming or gentle rumbling sound. But if your pool pump is making loud noises, then this could indicate an underlying problem. Sounds to keep an ear out for include grinding, whining, screeching, and banging noises. Also, pay attention to any new or louder sounds emanating from your pump.</p><p> </p></div>
