What to do with hardened bags of pool salt?

No matter how hard the bags seem, it's truly not a solid brick of salt. Pick up the bag and drop it onto concrete ... the hardened salt will break right up.

Two or three bags at worst.


What mean salt?

If you have a salt-water pool and you have an indicator that says add salt it means that the amount of salt in the pool is not enough for the chlorinator to manufacture chlorine. Take a sample of water to your pool shop and they will help you with what is required. Or get a couple of bags of salt and add salt until the salt warning stops. The latter is a bit of a dodgy way of going about it.

No, A beach is not a pool there is a difference. A beach is a place with salt water and it is an open area, the beach usually has sand. A pool is a place for many people with chlorine water. it is mostly on land!

Salt system for your pool do you use table salt for it and where can you buy this in bulk?

The salt that isnormally used in salt water pools is Sodium Chloride. and this is the same as table salt. However rather then going to the grocery shop for it you will find that pool shops and some hardware and department stores Cary bags of the stuff. If you go to a pool shop take a sample of water and the size of the pool with you along with the type of saltwater chlorinator you have and they will be able to let you know how much you need.


How do you put the salt into the water?

The best way to add salt to the water is to split the bag open and pour the salt onto the steps. This way the ink on the bag will not stain the pool and by putting the salt on the steps your Kreepy Krawly or other automated pool cleaner will not suck the salt up.

What should you add to a salt water pool besides salt to keep the pool at top condition?

I assume that you understand that 'salt' alone will do nothing for your pool and that you require the Saline System equipment. Salt is added initially andthereafter only top up salt is required (maybe a couple of 50 pound bags per year, on average). A saline pool requires everything that any other pool requires, with ONE EXCEPTION. The saline system will produce the sanitizer, so you do not need to add any sanitizing/oxidizing chemicals such as 'pool chlorine', algaecide or 'shock' chemicals. Everything else is the same and must be maintained as per normal pool care recommendations (pH, alkalinity, conditioner, calcium hardness etc). A salt water pool converts the salt in the pool electronically to produce chlorine gas which is then dissolved into the water, so aside from making sure the salt content in the pool is OK the treatment is about the same. Except you don't have to put chlorine in


Where can you get salt for your pool?

at the pool shop
