Downsides to salt pools

[Waterworks]

I think that we could definitely learn a lot from this particular pool. The customer is a great guy, and is also very interested in getting to the bottom of the problem. As soon as the problem started to occur I asked him if it had been grounded and he immediately said yes, in four places and to every other peice of metal around the pool. I didn't actually think to check it out, but it seemed like he knew for sure that it had been done. Then I told him that an experienced salt guy (Sean) had told me that Stainless does not rust below 6000 ppm. He told me that his metalurgist and chemist said the salt was the problem, and I basically took his word for it. If I knew then what I know now I would have tried harder to convince him that it wasn't the salt's fault. I will try to convince him to let us add more salt and try to figure out exactly what happened.
