Salt level at 2700 PPM question

[mwsmith2]

You're ok at 7.0. You might lose a touch of alk being down that low, but it shouldn't be all that major. I like to stay in the 7.5 range with a SWC, since a lower pH is more conducive to Cl production.

Your ideal salt ppm range will be stated in your manual.

This is a duplicate post that was answered in the "Chlorine Feeders and SWC" forum.

Please do not double post with the same question in more than one forum. It makes it difficult to help when the information and advice is not in the same place. I'm going to move this thread into the SWC forum and merge it with your other thread.

Sorry about the double post, I did not realize it posted the first time.

Since this thread did take a turn to pump running time, does it matter to have the pump running differently on weekends.

In other words, the reason we run in split times (morning and evenings) is because we have water features that we like running at night when sitting /using the pool after work and we run the pump probably 12 hours per day on weekends due to water feastures, more swimming ,etc.

See any issues here?


Thanks again,

Should not be a problem, you might have slightly higher clorine levels on the weekend but you are also using the pool more so you will have a slightly higher chlorine demand. Should work out just fine. I sort of do the same thing by manually turning the pump on during the weeked when I use the pool if it is during the normal off time.
