Anyone using salt w/o SWG in their chlorine pool?

Thanks!

16-1700 ppm. Can you taste the salt at this level?

I got a chance to take a brief dip last night, water did feel better, was definintely easier on the eyes, and my skin and hair felt better when I got out. This with only 900 pm. I thought I tasted salt a few times, but it was a fleeting sensation that I could never nail down. I think I was just paranoid

I may add more later. I just don't want to taste the salt, but apparantly based on your levels I've got room to play with and perhaps get even better water quality...

As you add more you go from bland crispy harsh sensations in the mouth, to knowing it's not the same any more, then to actually tasting something ... but it's hard to put a name to it, then to yeah, I think it's salt.

I miscalucated my first dump and got to the "yup it's salt" in one shot and that was pretty obvious last September. I should have done what you can do now.
Dump, swim. Should I add a bit more? etc.

It sounds to me like you've made the biggest improvement already.

One other point. If you keep adding it you will eventually get to the point that evaporation of the top of the pool cover, if you use one, will start to leave a definite white residue.

Good luck

Thanks.

No pool cover here.

I may add one more bag, that will bring me to 1130 ppm, and see how it goes. Doesn't sound like that level should be much risk at tasting salt.

Do you taste salt at the level you tasted last night? I mean this morning

Trying to get this done while the wife's away, want to see if she notices the water quality improvement before I fess up
