I would like to try my salt at around 3000. That is what is recommended. I will be bringing my water to my pool builder this week for testing. Ben's salt test is giving me a reading of 3200 but my Autopilot is telling me 3700. My water has a very definite salty taste-much saltier that the water we tasted at the builders. I suspect the Autopilot is closer to the accurate number because the purifier is almost always off and when it is on I can run it at 15-20 but my chlorine levels run at 5/5.5 and my CYA reads in the low mid 40's.My cell is on level 2. Someone suggested I lower it to lever 1 and raise the output? Right now my numbers are all very good so would you suggest this? These are my numbers after adding the muriatic acid yesterday:
FC 5
CC 0
pH 7.4
ALK 110
CYA 45
temp 84

I only tested Cal once in the beginning because I have a liner pool. It was 170.

So if I am understanding, and as I said, chemistry isn't my forte, The SWG can run so low because the salt is high? Temps have been steady at about 83-84. I just think the salt taste is too strong. I though it was supposed to be slight.
