Tonight I add salt to my non SWG above ground pool

If it is aluminum, it can corrode. Some AG pool vendors may not guarantee the warranty, if you use a SWCG. You may want to check this.

For inground plaster pools with a concrete border make sure to wash any salt spilt on the concrete into the pool with a garden hose.

Hope this helps.

I really can't wait to do this. But I need to get a handle on BBB first.

We have a whole house water conditioner system which uses that salt, and it makes a huge difference in the house, so I'm sold on it being useful in the pool. I'll probably target the very low end so I don't have to worry about the possible corrosion issue. It sounds like even at 800ppm, there's some tangible benefit.

Mom2Czars, you can do this independently of the BBB system, as it will not have any effect on the rest of your pool chemistry. If you want salt in your pool , just put it there.
