Hi All,
I'm a relatively new pool owner, and really new to trying to maintain it myself. My salt was pretty low (1200ppm) and I used the Pool Math app to determine how much salt to add based on the volume my pool builder said my pool was (25K gallons), but 12 hours later my Hayward app is registering way too much on the Instant Salt (4500ppm). I assume this is because it hasn't been fully distributed yet, and the bottom inlet of the pool is probably getting really salty water since the salt dissolved at the bottom of the pool.
So my question is: how long do you typically see having to wait before the salt is evenly distributed and you get an accurate reading?
