I accidentally got the salt level to 3500 - 3600. It is for a t-15 Hayward. Can I leave it there or must I lower the water level to get it below 3400?

And early today I added a 40 lb bag of salt. When adding small amounts like that it is recommended to turn off SWG for the next 24 hours? That 40 lbs is what put me over - I had read 3000 and 40 lb should have only raised the level to about 3300.
 
It is not a major problem.

How are you measuring the salt level?

Where did the 3500-3600 come from?
 
What does the Hayward system say the salinity is?
 
What Hayward system do you have?

What are the diagnostics - volts, amps, salinity?
 
Report what the diagnostic readings are when you decide to turn your SWG on.

I just turned my SWG back on - after my slam fc has dropped back to around 10 . I’ll let it get down to about 9ish

My diagnostics are in order:

3400


84
23..5
6.10

AL - 2
r 1.59
T - 15

Your amps are in the 6s.

Your salt is fine. Let it drop naturally.
