Hi Bama! You should know: A salt-water pool IS a chlorine pool! It's technically a Salt Water Chlorine Generator that you are using. From your HS chem remember that salt is Sodium Chloride. The SWCG splits off the chlorine to sanitize your pool. It then re-forms with the sodium in a catalytic reaction. So you can ALWAYS add chlorine to your pool, and, rather than boosting your cell, you should add chlorine instead.
