Alright made a mistake 🤦‍♂️ I added 50lb bags instead of 40lb bags of salt so 150lbs to much salt. RJ-60 says salt levels should be between 3-4000. Current levels after running all night 4500. I do have the proper salt test kit that is recommended here. Do I need to replace 25% of my pool I just filled to drop the levels? Or will I be ok as I lose some salt as the summer goes on? Ran about 3800 last year. Doesn’t taste any different than last year but if it’s going to ruin something I don’t want to do that. I haven’t turned on the SWG yet as it hasn’t been 24hrs yet since adding the salt. Thanks!
 
Use liquid chlorine. Most bleaches have other additives. Running the cell with high salt, if the unit doesn't alert, can shorten the life of the cell. I would use liquid chlorine until you salt comes down to 4000
