4.6.4 How to Add Salt to the Pool

1. Turn on pump to circulate pool water.
2. IMPORTANT - Turn the power pack off by pressing the ON/Off button (OFF will be displayed on the screen).
3. Test the water for salinity level using test strips, electronic meter, or by your local pool professional.
4. Use the Table 1 to determine the amount of salt to add. Be conservative when adding salt as it is easier to add
more if needed than it is to dilute if there is too much salt.
5. Broadcast salt into pool. Do not add through skimmer, main drain, or surge tank. Brush the salt around the pool to
facilitate dissolving. Circulate fi lter system for 24 hours to ensure even distribution.
6. After 24 hours, verify correct salt reading by testing the water salinity level using test strips, electronic meter, or
by your local pool professional.
7. When the salinity level is correct, turn the power pack on. Press the OUTPUT button to set the desired production
rate.
NOTE For a new pool or newly resurfaced pool it is recommended to wait at least 30 days (surface should be
completely cured) before adding salt. Follow the pool surface manufacturers guidelines for your
particular pool. For vinyl and fi berglass pools, salt can be added at start up.
