I do not see any reason why it would not work with saltwater due to no bearings to worry about and everything s plated or painted. All in all its a great unit to have. I liked it so well i now have 2 of them. One on each end of the boat.

I would recommend a better pool pump and sand filter. The system my not be moving the water around enough for the salt water system which will cause it to fail.

I honestly do not know. The very small instruction booklet that it came with was not even in English. It has worked great the couple of times I have taken it out. Very loud, but it runs! I just don't know about salt water.. sorry.

I know nothing about salt water - but I have a 55 gal fresh water setup with a home made undergravel filter - just PVC pipes and the Cobalt Power head. It's been running for a few months now and I have not done anything with the tank or water and it's perfectly clear and the fish seem to be happy. So it works great for my setup.

As soon as you get the salt level in your pool to the specs this will produce chlorine. You will have to monitor it to find the proper amount if time to run unit but it works great. I suggest a chlorine stabilizer you will run the unit less with it. Good luck

I don't have a salt water pool so I cannot answer your question. My last one ran for 14 years with my chlorine pool.

Yes, there would be no issue with using it with a salt water pool. The only thing would be that you would need to use a Scalewatcher 5 star unit due to the fact that it is outside. You cannot use the 3 star for outdoor use.

Yes. I am using mine with a saltwater setup. We have a sand filter and we just turn the salt generator off while vaccuming the pool.

Yes, it can be used for salt water, it has sealed bearings. Just rinse it off with fresh water after you use it.

I run a 3/4 hp pump with this heater and the pressure has never been an issue. I also run a chlorine generator . This unit has a titanium core and is not affected by salt. The heater needs to be installed between the filter and the chlorine generator.

I have a lot of coral & a salt tank. If you have a lot of rock work or reef Set up you might get stronger as I have 2 of these in a 40g! You don't want a stagnant areas so figure where you'll need to create movement thru your rocks or if just fish 2 might be enough!JM 2¢

Yes it will work fine for pumping out a saltwater pool, simply rinse the unit off when your finished. The salt will only damage the unit if it is allowed to sit on the unit. It is a very durable unit I used it to drain a 1 acre pond for yearly maintenance and it was run 8hrs a day for 10 days straight. Keep and eye on the oil and change it as recommended!

I have been using it. The air gets blown up from underneath so nothing to really gunk up with the salt. I found it actually works great with it.

Yes, I have had it on my salt pool for 2 years, going on three. It seems like such a simple thing, but it has held up great and it does work. I am absolutely happy with it.

I really don't know. I think it should run fine in salt water but unless you clean it VERY GOOD I would expect it to corrode very quickly making it useless. I I reeally don't know how you might clean it sufficiently.

YES! I have a salt water pool and it works great. Occasionally, you may want to rinse off any salt which accumulates on the top of the cover with a garden hose just to keep it looking new and clean.
