I'm in the process of balancing my water in prep for install of an SWG (Mineral Springs).

30000 IG plaster pool

Yesterdays results with Ben's kit were:

FC-0
PH 7.2
alk 120
cal 230
cya 50
salt 800


So using the Calc I added the following

.5 gallons of 12.5% bleach aiming for 2
480 pounds of salt aiming for 2700
2 lbs CYA aiming for 60

This morning results are:

fc 0
ph 7.2
alk 120
cal 230
cya 70
salt 4200

I repeated the salt test using water from a different part of the pool thinking maybe the salt I added was not fully circulated and I got 4000 the second time.

How the heck did my salt go so high? Might it settle lower?

I really expected to wake up today with everything perfect. Instead I have way too much salt since recommended max for this unit is 3200.

I run the pump 24/7.

Any ideas?
