We are almost a year into our salt pool conversion. Our in ground pool was built sometime in the early '80s and all plumbing is PVC. Total cost for the parts, install, and setup was $1700. This is our first home pool experience so I don't have any comparison to a normal chlorine pool in maintenance effort and cost but the swimming experience is exceptional. The water feels soft, is easy on the eyes and hair, and you don't exit the pool smelling of chlorine.
