Tonight I add salt to my non SWG above ground pool

[NWMNMom]

Well, I just added 120# of solar salt a few hours ago. The taste is very slightly salty we think, but maybe just our imagination? Anyway, DH came home from a hot, dusty afternoon in the field on a broken down tractor with no a/c - jumped in and immediately said, "What did you do to the pool?" Summary: I big thumbs up! (I opened my eyes underwater with no stinging, my hair is NICE afterwards)

I added 100# of 99.8% pure salt to my 8500 gal. pool yesterday. Don't have a test kit to measure the salinity but I noticed the difference in the water immediately. The pool definitely has a slight salt taste but not at all bothersome. I liked the way my skin and hair felt afterwards and think I'll enjoy opening my eyes underwater without the stinging.
