Are Salt water pool filter different from fresh water pool filters.?
There is no difference aside from the fact that in a salt water pool salt has been added. the water from the pool is then run through an electronic element that releases chlorine from the salt in the water. The salt water pool needs to be run for x amount of time to enable the creation of enough chlorine. or else extra chlorine can be added to make up for any short fall RB
Does a salt water pool dehydrate you?
If a salt water pool has a DE (diatomaceous earth) filter, then the filter depends on the DE for filtration. Salt water pools must be filtered just the same as fresh water pools. Not all filters use DE however. There are also sand and cartridge style filters that do not use DE. Salt is added to a pool usually to enable the use of a salt water chlorine generator which can eliminate the need to add chlorine because the chlorine is generated electrically from the salt. It does not eliminate the need for filtration and in the case of a DE filter, does not change the need for DE.

Yes as a mater of fact that is what salt water pool normally is. With a salt water pool there is a electronic salt water chlorinator installed that uses the salt in the water to create chlorine.

How does a household water softening unit works?
First it adds salt to the water, then it runs the salt water through a series of filters. The filters pull the salt back out of the water, and the salt tends to cling to other impurities. So as the salt is pulled out of the water, many other impurities that would normally not be affected by the filters are removed with the salt.

salt water does provide a lower degree of freezing temperature but the normal amount in a salt water pool is so low that the answer is "not enough to make a difference". Protect your pool and equipment from freezing as you would if it weren't a salt water pool
