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.

how many pounds of salt do you add to a 12000 gallon swimming pool?
salt is based on PPM or parts per million and a salt system operates around 3000 PPM on most systems. If you have no salt in your pool the amount of salt to add would be around 200 pounds but if you have some salt in the system then you need to find the ppm already in the pool and adjust as needed. Do not forget to add cyneric acid or you will lose what sanitizer is produced on the hot days.
How much salt goes into a swimming pool?
It depends how many gallons your pool is. Once you buy your chlorinating system, the install manual will tell you how much salt to add based on how many gallons in the pool. I have an Autopilot Digital and it tells me when it needs salt. I still check it with test strips to be safe.
