Just a quick update....for those that have been replying to me.....and I thank you again for that..... I went to Leslie's.......he said my alk was way down, ph way way up.....No chlorine, which I knew.....and I had phosphates.......and calcium was way down...... So I got everything to...

Thank You all for your replies..... Just checked the pool, it's still cloudy..... Off to the poolstore in a few.....

Thanks Matt..... I googled mortons salt pool.....didn't add the anti-caking wording in my google........ This is an above ground Intex Metal Frame pool......16'X48", and I upgraded to a 2000ph filter. It's running right now......been running since adding the salt. So no fancy filter (or...

I did Google....and I couldn't find anything about table salt for pools......what did I miss?????? I feel like such a ding-dong for following advice like that...... Should have stuck with what y'all were posting here....... But what did the Google say??? Is it fixable?????? TIA!!

Thank You very much for pointing that out...... With that said......have I ruined the pool? Can I finish the adding of salt with better salt? Will the cloudiness go away? And what salt is the best to use? Thank You all VERY much for helping me.......

This is the link to Sams Club.....this is the exact bag/s I was advised to purchase - http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/naviga ... tem=181933 It actually does not say on it the % it is.

Thank You Matt.......I cannot tell as of right now (2am), so I will have to just goto bed and wait until tomorrow. I will get the test strips and then check... Waterbear, If that's not good salt, have I ruined the pool? I don't need to drain, do I? Will the cloudiness eventually go away if...

Thank You very much, Matt..... This is finer grain salt......as it's table salt......which is why it was suggested to me, to dissolve quicker, thus not much cloudiness. Perhaps I informed was wrong...... I added it earlier today....and now it's dark out....so I cannot say if it's still cloudy...

I've read a bit on this SWG forum.....and have seen what alot of you are posting about which salt to buy......but I had a more specific question.... What about Morton's Table Salt? (Not ionized....just regular) I've read here on one, maybe two, threads about how pretty much any salt could be...

Perfect - and Thank You very much!! (o:

I posted in my inroduction that I had taken down my old pool in October 07. Prior to that, I was having problems with my above ground pool (AGP, right? Trying to get a hang of the lingo here) Anyway, I had purchased a Taylor Complete Test kit......probably somewhere in August or September...

HaHa!! Thank you, Sean......I'm hoping to not have too many problems, *knock on wood*.......but I'm certain I will, and I'll be posting here right away..... And thank you for the welcome Mermaid Queen....

Thank you all for the nice warm welcome!! I keep our pools up year-round.....so I'm hoping this pool lasts longer than the 1st one. Winters here don't get too chilly, and the upkeep, as I remember it, weren't as difficult. I'm really hoping the SWG (once I get it) helps out a whole bunch. I...

Hi there. I found this site last year when we had our pool up and I was having problems......I cannot recall if I ever posted here, but I did get a TON of information which helped me out a whole bunch. At the time, we had a 15x36 Intex metal fame pool. We had it for the summers of 04, 05, 06...
