My pool CH is only about 150 ppm so in my new and likely perpetual quest for cheap pool chems, I found this at Home Depot (pickup at local store).
The packaging says 100% CaCl (photo):

but I click on the SDS link there and it says there's a little bit of salt in it too (NaCl and KCl):

Calcium Chloride 83-87%
Water 8-14 %
Potassium Chloride 2-3%
Sodium Chloride 1-2%
Should be okay, right?
Thanks a bunch!
Edit: Oops! I was wrong. Guess it's not available at my HD location or for deliver to my home. Arghhh! So many pool chems are like this, I'm finding.
I'd still like to confirm that the salt would be okay in my pool.
