In preparation to install my SWG, I knew it was time to accurately confirm my salt level with a Taylor K-1766. Even though I've never added salt, I know salt is a by product of sodium hypochlorite (bleach). So what was my salt level? 3,200! That's from seven years of owning this pool. Even with LOTS of winter and spring water-dumping from heavy TX rain, I only need to add a couple 40-pound bags of salt to meet my required level.
So if you're a manual chlorine jug-dumper like I have been for seven years, next time you think about salt in your pool, you might want to actually test it - accurately with a K-1766. It does impact your CSI after all, if that's a concern for your pool.
