Here’s an old thread asking the same question and many other people chiming in with similar issues. Seems liquid chlorine over time does add salt but not the level I’m experiencing. But since I opened it with a lot of baking soda...prolly explains things How much will salt concentration...

Leslie’s pools suggested that liquid chlorine is full of solids & will cause this problem. Any feedback here?

I realize the solution will be drain & refill but I’m trying to discern the cause.

Here’s my chlorine setup I did a couple years ago

CH 550 Tested again for salt level and it’s 5000 You can taste salt in the pool. Only major thing I do different than my neighbors who don’t have SWG is use liquid chlorine. There has to be something about this & the way it’s pumping in my pool that is causing it to crystallize & raise salt...

I use the test kit everyone else does here. I will repost Ch later. It’s liquid chlorine through a pump

You & me both brother. Yes I know. I added a lot of chlorine after the test & will drain in off season to reduce cya.

I’ve also noticed calcified chlorine in the tubes and also at the bottom of the rocks. NEar my waterfall.

Cya 100 Chlorine 3 Ph 7.4 Salt 6400 I’ve done this method for several years and this is abnormal I promise.

I DO NOT have an SWG. I use a chlorinator & follow this method on this site. I noticed water tasting salty. Tested it and it was 6000. Double checked at sun devil pools. Water is two years old. Do not have a water softener or RO or anything. No idea how salt would get in there. Theories?

Thank you! You're right Matt, I would not pay that much for cleaning.

Does anyone in the Phoenix / Chandler area have any recommendations for good pool guys who can service using TFP methodologies? I have a automatic liquid chlorine pump that feeds straight into my pipes. Just looking to delegate the maintenance end of it.

Thanks proavia. That's exactly where I got it yesterday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Filled up to bottom of label with water, to top with r013. Shook well, waited 30 seconds, shook again. Held long tube waste high with back to sun. Filled until black dot disappears which was never. R013 is a new bottle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I took my water to Leslie's & they say cya is 40. Anyone have experience with their tests for this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hmmm, can't find on Amazon. Thx anyway. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah. I don't think my test had a standard so I didn't realize such a thing existed. Makes perfect sense, thx. Having trouble measuring my own cya from my pool water. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you're making it turn out 50 no matter what, how do you know what the actual reading is? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've been doing TFP for a little over a year now. Last year when I started my CYA was too high. Was told had to drain to get it right. I did so this spring. I also added CYA through the sock up to 40ppm after I refilled this spring. Also this summer I floated tabs for a week when I left for...

I've been buying 10% liquid chlorine from Wal mart for 3.60/gallon. I live in Phoenix area. Anyone know where to purchase more affordably?

Mine was 40 yesterday. If it ever gets low I float a couple of tabs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My CYA was the same until I drained it in February of this year. It stays at 40 now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's already down to 11ppm. I'm assuming because it me 110 degrees outside & cya is 40 so any ppm above a certain amount will burn extra quick. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Need some advice after a major screwup. I have stenner auto chlorinator. My power went out & even though the pump says it has batter backup it failed to kick in. So I had to reset my time & timer. I set it to start at 10pm & accidentally set the end time for 1115am & didn't realize it until day...
