    Default salty water

    The water in our AG pool is very salty. We use liquid bleach to clorinate. Is this a problem? If so, what do I need to do?

    Sodium hypochlorite does add salt but it is not a problem. In fact, many people who don't even have SWCGs add salt to their pools anyways because they like the feel of the water.

    When you say "very salty" what do you mean? You taste it? It stings your eyes? What is your pool's salt level in ppm?
