Hey All,
I got my water tested at Leslie's and they showed my salt at 2500ppm while the ideal range is 2700 - 3400 ppm. They said I need to add 3 bags of salt, or 116lbs. My pool is approx. 20,000 gallons. Can I just add a pound or two of shock to increase the salt levels or will that not cause an increase in the salts? The shock was significantly cheaper than 3 bags of salt.
