Well out of curiosity I took a bottle of water to our local pool place and tested it. The SWG was reading 1900 and I though that had to be wrong, well it wasn't. I added the additional 4 bags that I had sitting here and it is just shy of 2900 so I need to add another bag. I just need to know how many PPM a 40# bag of salt will bring the pool salt level up to.
Here are the results they are obviously low due to us just getting the pool started for the first time. She did say that I need the stabilizer (8#) to add to the pool so I might pick that up there to keep on good terms.
FC .3PPM
Total Chlorine .4PPM
Combined Chlorine .1PPM
Ph 7.1
Hardness 54PPM
Alkalinity w/Stabilizer 0PPM
Cyanuric Acid 8PPM
Copper 0PPM
This is what she suggested that I do. 1st add 65# of hardness increaser let that mix around for a while and then add 56# of alkalinity increaser to the pool. Then when the levels are all correct add 8# of stablizer
