Add salt to pool using Bleach as sanitizer

[inspectorgene]

I have a 33,000 gallon pool and have been using the BBB method for 2 seasons and it has worked out great.

Have read some posts on here about adding salt to a pool that does not have a SWG.

How much salt would I want to consider adding, and what benefits could I expect?

Thanks in advance.

Most non-swcg people add about 2000 ppm. It's suposed to make the water feel better.

Any idea how much that would be? I guess I better get some way to test for salt before I add any?

Yes you need to have it tested and you can use the Pool Calc to figure how much you need to add.

You could add it in stages to see if it's something you're going to like. Perhaps 50 to 100 pounds of salt and then give it some time to see if there is any difference.
