Salt Water Above Ground Pool Start Up Treatment

I am getting ready to purchase an above ground pool and I was wondering if there was a start up kit using the salt treatment?




Thanks for the question

To the best of my knowledge, there's no "start up" kit specifically designed for a salt pool.

If you have salt and a chlorine generator, you will open your pool in the same manner as a regular pool.

You'll need to know your pool size (# of gallons) and the salinity range for your salt cell.

Here are some good posts to look over:

How To Lower A High Salt Level In A Pool

How To Choose The Right Size Salt Water Generator..Cell

Are These Salt Water Pool Balance Readings Right?

Which Salt To Use In A Salt Water Swimming Pool?

Salt Water Swimming Pools

Chlorine Generator

These posts will give you more than enough information on getting your pool right the first time out.

They go into much detail on what to do, when and how to test your salinity, the kind of salt meter to use, etc...

You can also check out the Q&A page as there's even more information there.

Swimming Pool Questions and Answers

You can see your post on that page in the "Start Up/Pool Opening" category.

Have a great Summer and good luck with your new pool.
