How many chemicals should you use in your pool?
You can usually get away with just two, chlorine tablets and baking soda when pH gets too low. In my experience as a pool shop owner, it will cost the average pool owner $200 PER YEAR if it is a salt water pool or $450 per year for a fresh water (chlorine) pool. Remember that the salt pool owner will have to purchase a new cell each 4-5 year period. Therefore owning a salt water pool for 5 years you will be approx. $1000 better off.
