The salt I used was in pellet form, about an inch long. Threw the stuff in the pool, about 6 bags, jumped in the pool and stirred things up. Took about, maybe half an hour to dissolve.Doesn't water softener salt come in crystal form? How long would it take to disolve? Does it come finer?
That was last year, I don't have an SWG I just wanted to see if I liked the feel of salt water.

Re: Canadian looking for salt
Pool salt will dissove a bit faster than solar salt since the crystal size is smaller. Pellets dissovle slower but they all dissove farily fast so it's really a moot point.

Waterbear, any idea wether "Improved resin clean formula" is an additive that should be avoided? One brand has that but the salt is 99.8% evaporated salt?
