Thanks Pool Sean,

It is salt - it's not rough - you can pick it up in your hand - they dumped in Morton's solar salt - all 400 + lbs. I ran home at lunch and it looks like it has cleared up, but I didn't have time to brush- yep I have been running with the main drain on.

Also - I do try to keep PH between 7.2-7.4 - but it sky rocketed after the salt was added yesterday - I added some acid this morning and tested about 20 minutes later and it looked like it was between 7.2-7.5 - but I don't think it was really mixed up yet.

The warranty guidelines are for the pool in general - the finish, equipment, heater, etc.

Since I am new to pool care - I am afraid that I will get algae with the chlorine at 1-3ppm with a CYA of 60-80. I guess I can try it and see what happens....
