Hello,

the pool builder put in salt a week or so ago. I took a water sample to the local leslie's and was told that my salt level is 5100 and that it is way too high and that I need to drain part of our pool and refill to get the level down.

The person put in about 9 bags of salt at 50# each. The AquaPure says that the salt level is 3200 (but I have heard that they are not accurate).

Also, the Leslis's guy let the test sit for about 10 minutes while he was on the phone and I don't know if that can throw the test strip he used off.

What do you think? The pool is about 20K gallons (from what I was told) and the only salt in there before was from chemicals used to start up the pool and the city of San Jose water.

Thanks,

Chris
