6.3.2 If the salt level is low, determine the number of litres in the pool and add salt
according to the chart below. A low salt level will reduce efficiency of the chlorine
generator and result in low chlorine production. A high salt level can cause a salty
taste to your pool and may damage the chlorinator and other pool equipment. In
addition, operating the unit outside the required salt level will rapidly reduce the
longevity of the Cell. The salt in your pool/spa is constantly recycled and the loss of
salt throughout the swimming season should be small. This loss is due primarily to
the addition of extra water to replace water lost from splashing, backwashing, and
draining (because of rain). Salt is not lost due to evaporation.
6.3.3 If salt content is too high you will need to reduce the level of water in your pool/spa
and refill the pool/spa with fresh water.
6.3.4 To initially start a pool with the correct amount of salt, add salt to the pool at a rate
of 25 kgs of salt for every 10,000 litres of water (see Table 1: Salt Table).
Salt Level before addition (ppm)
6.3.5 Table 1 - Salt Table. Locate the column that contains your pool’s current salt
concentration in parts per million at the top of the chart. Then locate the row that
contains the size of your pool in litres at the left of the chart. Where the column and
row intersect within the chart is the number of kilograms of salt required to be
added to your pool.
