    Splash-out on the other side, I think. When my kids swim, I lose quite a large volume of water due to splashout.

    Salt water would void the warranty on my pool. Many of the components of my pool are galvanized steel - the top and bottom rails as well as the parts at each vertical that hold the rails together. I suppose salt water could accelerate the corrosion of these parts. I believe there are some AG pools that have all resin (plastic) components that warranty salt water use.
