    SWG Questions

    I've had a SWG for a few years. The first couple of years I blindly followed the Pool Company's directions. Paid way too much for salt....then weekly "renewal". First, where can you buy salt for the pool? Do you need any kind of weekly additive? What chemicals should be closely monitored...
