Do salt water pools cause excessive corrosion to pool equipment and cause damage to plaster pools?

YES! Salt water DEFINITELY causes corrosion in your swimming pool. I am a 25 year pool professional and I have seen first hand what salt does to gunite pools. It will eat you pool equipment, stone, concrete, metal, you name it. Keeping your pH neutral will slow down the process of corrosion, but it is still happening, regardless of your water chemistry.

Salt water pools are slightly more corrosive to iron then fresh water pools , however the concentration of salt in them is very small and corrosion is usually not a problem You should keep im mind however that it would be preferable to use materials that are corrosion resistant in these situations as in time galvanized iron parts will corrode.
