Check your stabilizer level (or conditioner) it should be 40-60 PPM. Next check your salt level, should be 3000-3600 PPM. If their both in line; make sure your chlorinating cell is clean. If there is algae in your pool you must shock it with regular chlorine. See instructions on label.

What if your total chlorine is high and your free chlorine is low?

If your total chlorine is high and your free chlorine is low, it means that the chlorine in the water is mostly bound to contaminants and is not available to sanitize the pool effectively. This situation could result from the chlorine being overused or ineffective due to high levels of organic matter. To correct it, you may need to shock the pool to break down the combined chlorine and restore the free chlorine levels.

How much stabilizer do you add in a 30000 liter saltwater pool when the test strip color shows too low?

Not sure what too low means, But you need in an outdoor pool about 80 PPM of Stabelizer and in an indoor pool around 10 to 20 PPM. We have a new product called pool magic which each gallon adds 20PPM stabelizer per Regular cyanuric acid has a low pH and is very acidic and it can take 4 to 7 days to dissolve. This can cause damage to the pool surface or circulation system depending on the method of application. Until dissolved, dry cyanuric acid will not protect chlorine from UV loss. Natural Chemistry�s Instant Pool Water Conditioner is not an acid (it�s a salt) and has a pool friendly pH of about 8.0. Add it to the pool and an instant later it is in solution and ready to protect your chlorine.
