So two days ago I dumped and brushed 240lb of Leslies pool salt into my pool. Saltron Retro still showing low. Yesterday I dumped 80 lb Morton pool salt. Still showing low and I used a aquachek salt test strip and it is only showing at around 440 ppm salt. What the **** is going on? my filter...

Does an above ground oval have "ridges" on the inside of the pool when filled Or did my installers put the buttress posts not spaced apart enough across the pool? I don't know if ridges in the pool are normal or not? My pool has a slightly "dog boned" shape and inside the pool kind of bumps...
