You test a salt water pool the same as an ordinary pool where it comes to testing the chemical balance of the water. Most importantly check for free chlorine regularly. testing for salt can be done less often as the only thing that causes los of salt is backwashing water being splashed out of the pool and overflowing of the pool in the case of rain.

How can I detect a leak in a pool?

To detect a leak in a pool, you can perform a simple bucket test. Fill a bucket with pool water and place it on the pool steps. Mark the water level inside the bucket and the pool water level. After 24 hours, check if the water levels have changed. If the pool water level has dropped more than the bucket water level, it may indicate a leak.


How often should I test my pool water for pH and chlorine levels?

You should test your pool weekly at the very least and if there has been lots of rain or after a pool party. Liquid testing kits, strip testers, and digital testing kits are the main ways to test your pool water. You should test for total and free chlorine, pH, alkalinity, cyanuric acid, calcium hardness, phosphates, copper, and salt if you have a saltwater pool.

If you lived in an area with very cold winters should water be kept in you outdoor pool all winter Why or why not?

No, water should not be kept in your pool all winter. When it gets cold enough, the water will freeze. When water freezes, it expands. So when the water in your pool freezes and expands your pool will be ruined.
