Hi there
I’m considering purchasing a new SWG. My old one happily operated at 5000ppm but it’s nearly 15 years old. The replacement SWG manual specifies a salt level of between 3000-3500ppm and no higher than 4000ppm.
Using an Aqua Chek salt test strip it returned a 7.2 result (4780ppm). So if I proceed with the SWG replacement I need to lower the salt level by diluting it with fresh water.
It’s a fibreglass inground pool with a volume of 30,000 litres (7900 gallons more or less) and is at max. level.
I’ve read a couple of formulas on websites but I don’t want to dilute it too much and have to add salt again hence my question. Any advice with an amount to remove would be very helpful.
Cheers
