I have a salt water pool (about 3000ppm) and can definitely tell it's not
plain drinking water. I also added borax as a ph stabilizer, but it's a
relatively small amount (one box I think) so I think it's the salt I am
tasting.

But then again I don't drink pool water. There is no
issue with the little water that goes in the mouth or the nose.
It's barely salty. I don't see why the taste should be a concern.

Since I added the SWG, I haven't seen even any hint of eye
reddening in any of the children and adults who have used
the pool, no matter how long. Previously it happened when
I underchlorinated it and when it needed shocking. For me,
the benefits of the SWG far outweigh the change in water
flavor.
