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.

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. Do yourself a favor, DO NOT use salt in your pool.
