You have probably added too much salt. Your system is out of balance.

Do you have to buy a salt chlorine generator to have a salt water pool?

Yes. The salt is run through a chlorinator that changes the salt to chlorine. It won't do it by itself so you have to buy the generator to do this.


Do you really need a salt water generator for your salt water pool?

Yes, as the generator creates the sanitizer for the pool, just throwing salt in it won't do anything


How long do you have to wait to turn on salt generator after adding salt?

After adding salt to your pool, it's recommended to wait at least 24 hours before turning on the salt generator. This allows the salt to dissolve fully and disperse evenly throughout the water. Additionally, ensure that the water is properly circulated to avoid damaging the generator. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines for specific recommendations.

How do you convert a fresh water hot tub to a salt water hot tub?

Although ordering the spa as a "salt water" hot tub when you buy it is easier, as there is some plumbing work required, you can retrofit either a bromine salt generator or chlorine salt generator and create your own "salt water spa".There is a misnomer about salt water hot tubs in that you still have to create the chemical chlorine or bromine in order to sanitize the water. Only with a salt generator this process happens automatically, but you must establish either a bromine salt reserve or a chlorine salt reserve depending on the system you are using.You will save the trip to the store for chlorine or bromine, but you still need to add the salt when you refill the spa or when you top up the water.To convert, the bromine salt cell is plumbed into the water line and the control unit is mounted to the spa. A hot tub tech can do this for you. Sometimes you may save by already having the salt generator and just having someone hook it up and add it to the plumbing.There is no switching. But you do have to install a chlorine generator. The generator makes the chlorine from the salt you add. But why go through all the hassles and expense?A better bet would be to use Bromine, it was developed for use in hot tubs. Besides at high temps. chlorine will vent off in a gas form and probably run you off.

How does a saltwater pool stay clean?

Salt is used in conjunction with a chlorine generator in pools to create sanatizer. The salt (sodium chloride) is changed temporarilly to chlorine by the electrical charge in the "generator" it then acts as a sanatizer.


When I turn on my salt generator in my swimming pool it looks like a cloud shooting out of the returns foam is then on top of the pool if the generator is not on the foam clears why?

Foamy water can sometimes be an indication of too high pH !. Remember to check both the pH AND the Total Alkalinity.It may also be that scale has built up on your generator cell. Turn off the system, remove the cell by undoing the Unions at each end, and clean the cell according to manufacturers instructions.Check the salt level also. If too high, lower the water level and add fresh water to reduce the salt %.Good LuckGreg M Simmons C.P.O.gregs.cpo@gmail.com


Can you switch from chlorine to a saltwater system just by installing a chlorine generator and adding salt?

Yes, you can switch from chlorine to a saltwater system by installing a chlorine generator, also known as a saltwater chlorinator, and adding salt to your pool. The chlorine generator will convert the salt into chlorine to sanitize the water, eliminating the need for manual chlorine additions. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper installation and salt levels.


You cannot get the salt level to come up in your swimming pool and the chlorine generator will not produce chlorine?

It sounds like the chlorine generator is broken
