    I have an Aqualogic unit that turns itself off if the salt level is too high or too low to protect the cell. You might want to check with your manufacture to see if they have the same feature.

    Big H, Check the size of your pool again. If it says it is 52'' deep in reality it will only be 48'' deep since you do not fill pool all the way to top which will say that you have more gallons of water then reality.

    Good catch, the highth of the walls is usually greater than the water depth!

    Another note for AG pools is the cove at the bottom of the wall where it joins the floor - not a lot of water admittedly, but a little off on a few calculations could mean the difference for dosing purposes.

    Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill libraries
