If you use salt for your pool do you have to have a salt water pump?

You do need to add something to your already existing filter system that changes salt into chlorines so that it sanitizes your pool. The name of that device is a salt water generator. It consists of a cell plumbed in after your filter and an electrical control system that monitors the cells performance.

How do you vacuum your salt water pool?

You can vacuum a salt water pool the same way you would a non salt water pool. If you are vacuuming on the filter setting, your filter will help to clean the debris out of the pool. If you are dealing with a very dirty pool and use the waste setting, you will be wasting some of the water from the pool in the process. Depending on how much water you take out and need to refill, you will most likely need to add some salt back in to get your salt level back to normal operating levels.

When do you add DE to a pool?

You add D.E. to a pool when you do a fresh filter clean. You also add D.E. if you have to backwash your pool more than normal. When you backwash the pool it is also dumping the D.E. out so it needs to be replaced to keep the grids covered so the pool can filter properly. Hope it helped

What mean salt?

If you have a salt-water pool and you have an indicator that says add salt it means that the amount of salt in the pool is not enough for the chlorinator to manufacture chlorine. Take a sample of water to your pool shop and they will help you with what is required. Or get a couple of bags of salt and add salt until the salt warning stops. The latter is a bit of a dodgy way of going about it.
