New Swimming pool , Is Salt water the best option?

[kwak250]

looking at getting a pool built
Was looking at getting around 10mx 4m with a slope going from 1.20m-1.80 meters

 

Quoted 880k for a Salt chlorinated concrete tiled pool from JD pools
Not sure if this is an overflow pool will have to check.

Jd pools said 1,80 would be dangerous and might actually go with a 12m pool going from 1.20 - 1.50 

Are liner pools worth looking at as always preferred the look of tiles.

We have been visiting Bang saphan for the last 3-4 years and the hotel have an excellent Desjoyaux liner pool that still looks amazing but heard they are expensive

What size pool would you suggest?

I read that "salt water" pools are not salt water.....it is still chlorinated water, but the chlorine comes from breaking down salt on a continuous basis....rather than dosing the pool every so often.

 

Anyone know if that is correct?

For me....go for as long a pool as you can afford, even if it is only 3m wide and 1.1m deep.

I've got a 14x4 x(1.4 to 2)m Kera tiled salt water pool. Great.

Don't slope all the way   say 4m flat 4m slope then 4m flat   something like that.

Waterfall and 2 dolphins in tiles on the bottom with 4 coloured LED lights.

Yes, about 8 years old and cost me, including around pool tiles and half pool shade structure above B800000 but I built it myself with farmers help.

Are you free for some work?

Love the idea of 14m
What sort  of monthly costs are involved to keep it looking good ?

Would a liner pool be as good ?

Looking at tiled but some liner ones look good.
