How much Morton® Professional's Choice™ Pool Salt should I use?
Most Salt Chlorine Generator units recommend a salt level of 3,200ppm NaCl, but some units operate at higher levels. Considerable amounts of salt are added to the pool prior to start-up (e.g. 530 lbs for a 20,000 gallon pool) and free chlorine is produced. After oxidation of bacteria and other reductants, the chlorine reverts back to chloride ions to maintain the salt concentration in the pool. Top-off salt needs to be added when fresh water is added to the pool due to water losses from splash out, pump outs or filter backwashing. In northern climates, pools are usually drained and "winterized" at the end of the swimming season and new salt is necessary when the pool is re-filled the following spring.
