Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much salt do I need for my pool?
A: Most chlorinators require 3,000-4,000 ppm. As a guide, allow approximately 4 x 20kg bags per 20,000L to reach target levels from zero. Always test your current salt level first - most pools only need a partial top-up rather than a full dose.
Q: Is this salt compatible with my chlorinator?
A: Yes - this high-purity, additive-free salt is compatible with all major saltwater chlorinator brands including Zodiac, Astral, Hayward, and others.
Q: How often do I need to add salt?
A: Salt doesn't evaporate, but it is lost through backwashing, splashing, and rainfall dilution. Most pools need a top-up once or twice per season. Test monthly to monitor levels.
Q: Can I use this salt in a spa or hot tub?
A: This product is formulated for swimming pools. For spa salt systems, check your spa manufacturer's recommendations before use.
Q: How do I store unused salt?
A: Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Keep the bag sealed to prevent clumping.
