Yes, we asked beofre we bought the pool if we could use a SWG and they said yes. They said the only thing that ruins the warranty on the pool is using liquid chlorine. I wondered if that sounded right though...? Doesn't the salt turn to chlorine?

That does not make sense. Liquid chlorine is bleach, usually 6%. They may be thinking of liquid chlorine bought from a pool store, which can be as high as 12% sodium hypochlorite.
The salt is converted to chlorine, and is replaced with muriatic acid, not salt.
You might want to check with the Chlorease manufacturer as well for the warranty in using their unit in an AG pool.
Hope this helps.
