I forgot to test my water before adding salt. Even though I added less than the amount recommended in my Intex SWG manual, it's up to 4200.
Classic rookie mistake but I wish the manual would tell you this. Tested with the Taylor K-1766 Salt Test (drops).

Would it be OK to run it for a few weeks with this level provided my SWG doesn't complain? It's hard to tell from the manual, but I think this level is probably OK.
We have a steep graduated water rate so my refill water will be much cheaper if I wait until the next billing cycle to replace 25% (2000 gallons) of my water.

Edit - the SWG is Krystal Clear Model CS8110 from Intex.
