How to Add Salt to the Pool
CAUTION - FOR ALL NEWLY CONSTRUCTED OR RESURFACED PLASTER POOLS: Do not operate
the IECG with newly poured or resurfaced pool plaster. Salt is a corrosive element and severe salt damage can
occur to your pool. Wait at least ONE (1) MONTH after construction to allow plaster to cure before adding salt
and operating IECG. Follow the pool surface manufacturer’s guidelines for your specific pool. FOR NEW VINYL
LINER POOLS, contact the manufacturer for recommended guidelines before adding salt and operating the
IECG.
1. Check salt level in pool water before adding any salt to pool.
2. Determine the amount of salt from the following charts.
3. Slowly pour in the salt around the outer perimeter of the pool for quick and even distribution. To
avoid clogging the filter or damaging pool related equipment and surrounding surfaces, do not
add salt through the skimmer or surge tank.
4. Brush the pool bottom and allow water to circulate for 24 hours to dissolve salt completely.
5. After 24 hours, verify correct salt level reading by checking the LED indicators on the IntelliChlor
Electronic Chlorine Generator and by a separate reliable test method.
6. Power on the IntelliChlor Electronic Chlorine Generator and set the Sanitizer Output level to the
proper setting to maintain the appropriate free chlorine levels in the pool water (i.e., within the
2.0 - 4.0 ppm, APSP recommended range).
