So i was thinking about adding some salt to get a better feel to the water and less irritation to the eyes.
Before adding salt i took a water sample to Leslie's for a starting level. I was expecting about 1000 ppm, just a guess. They tested 2000. The first test i think was a conductivity meter, but not sure. He also checked it again using some device that had a small bowl on it into which the water sample was poured. It may also have been a conductivity meter. I'm not sure but i also think he checked a 3000 ppm std. In any case, a base level of 2000 ppm seems a little high for a non swg pool just converted to chlorine from baquacil this spring. I may have added 750 ppm from chlorine additions (poolmath calc). still.
Does 2000 ppm seem high to anyone else for not having added any salt? Thanks.
