My friend just opened his brand new plaster pool. He was ready to run to the pool store but he decided to ask me!
I've been doing the TFP method for over a year now with A+ success. I was ready to run over to his house with my TF-100 test kit and a few gallons of bleach. Then he said "oh yeah I have a salt system." Ug!
So my question today is:
Here's a newbie with a salt system. Should I get him going doing the basic liquid chlorine method and then slowly let him turn his salt on once he gets the hang of it?
His pool company hasn't explained much. He said he was told to dump bags of salt directly into the pool (I seemed to have been under the impression that salt was provided in cartridges and provided a slow amount of chlorine to the water) - maybe I'm confused?
Anyway, if you have any thoughts on how to get me to get him up and running please chime in. I plan on doing a complete TF-100 work up and then balancing him. Then I would tell him to buy this kit and then slowly turn on the salt system (assuming this bag of salt dumped into the water thing won't change things).
Thanks
John
