Do you need to turn off your automatic salt chlorinator when adding shock to a salt water pool?
By Shock I guess you mean a packet of Chrlorine marketed as "Shock or "Shock Treatment" which is esentially just chlorine packaged at a higfher price. Any ususal powdered or liquied chlorine will do the same job except those that are Di chlor or tri chlor. No need to turn of the salt chlorinator at all.
Should you go ahead and put the salt in after shock?
It’s generally recommended to wait before adding salt to your pool after shocking it. Allow the chlorine levels to return to normal, as adding salt immediately can interfere with the shock treatment's effectiveness. Typically, waiting at least 24 hours before adding salt is advisable, but always check the instructions for your specific pool system and shock treatment.

How do you put salt shock in your swimming pool?
If you own a salt pool and you need to raise the salt level, go buy NON-IODIZED salt and add the appropriate amount (as determined by your particular salt-chlorinator's owners' manual) to get the level to where it needs to be. The salt addition process is nothing fancy; cut the corner of the bag with a box cutter and pour in the pool then sweep any that is resting on the bottom to get it to dissolve. Note: Adding salt is not shocking your pool, rather it is loading the gun that can be used to superchlorinate or "Shock" your water.

Can you put shock powder in salt pools?
Yes, you can use shock powder in saltwater pools, but it's important to choose a product specifically labeled for such systems. Regular chlorine shock can be used, but ensure it’s compatible with salt systems to avoid damaging equipment or affecting water balance. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and test the water afterward to maintain proper chemical levels.
Can you shock a salt pool with chlorine?
It would be fine to add chlorine, but do it in each corner of the pool. You will not do any harm to the system. Make sure your pool water is balanced. This requires a good proper kit like they use at the pool shops, or have it tested at a computerized pool teting centre. The old large kit that tests for acid levels around 4"x6" is the size of the blue plastic box and roughly 80-100 dollars. a little more salt than not enough is always better. Regards, Peter
