[QUOTE="rdvenom99, post: 15946154, member: 9783"] I've had a salt pool since the beginning of 2017 and love it. I didn't know what I was doing in the beginning with my cheapo test kit and something got in the water that was eating chlorine like mad. I had my chlorine generator at 100% for 10 hours a day and cl was still at 0-1ppm. I had to shock the pool constantly keeping the cl level at 20+ppm for 6 days straight before it could pass the overnight test and not lose 2ppm cl. Get a good test kit, recommend Taylor K-2006, keep your stabilizer level at 70-80ppm, cl around 7ppm, and ph between 7.4-7.8 and you will be set. I check my level once a week and usually just need to add a bit of acid to lower ph some. Only chems I need to keep on hand are stabilizer and muriatic acid. Also have a couple bags of salt for when we get a lot of rain and I need to drain water. Troublefreepool.com is a great resource if you need any help. [/QUOTE]
