My Jandy equipment was giving me trouble and a tech came in to check it.
My Taylor kit shows salt at about 3200-3400. He used a fancy electronic meter which showed salt at about 4100. I couldn't believe it because salt wasn't added to the pool since it was refilled 2 years ago and I couldn't beleive that salt level can go up that much. I took my water sample to three different stores (2 Leslies and 1 independent). Results were all over the place - 3000, 3400, 3700. Who do I beleive?
Is there a liquid that I can use with a known salt level? I tried this salinity calibration fluid but it didn't work with the Taylor test at all (Amazon.com : American Marine PINPOINT Salinity Calibration Fluid, 53.0mS/1.026SG : Aquarium Supplies : Pet Supplies) It 's suppose to be 3500 but at 4400 the color still hasn't changed.
