Having salt in the water is not a problem--there are quite a few users on this forum that don't use SWCGs that added the salt anyway because they like the feel of the water.

Re: Going back to Freshwater
I agree. I add salt to my pool but don't have a SWCG. The water is fabulous. Does not impact anything about chem balance that I can tell.
10,000 gallon IG vinyl liner pool, BBB user, salt added to 2300 ppm (because it makes the water feel great!), new liner/new water on 6/23/11, algae-free since 2006 (at least that's as far back as I remember). 1HP Hayward 2-SPEED CONVERTED Superpump, Hayward sand filter, PS234 test kit.
Goal: To remain completely algae-free for the life of this new liner!
Life lesson: It is what it is.
12'x24' oval 9K gal IG pool; bleach; Hayward 244T sand filter; Hayward Super pump, 1 HP, 2-speed pump; 24hrs on low speedhrs; PS234; utility water; summer: ; winter: ; android phone; PF:13

It will get diluted over time. I have to add one to two bags of salt to our pool each spring just to keep the levels up for the generator.
The biggest changes will be in the first couple of years. Five years from now I think you'd have trouble tasting the salt.
16x32 vinyl; SWCG, DE filter, Intelliflo pump,
solar heat ( to over 90 deg for the wife)
