    For pools it is best to empty the required salt into the shallow end of the pool and run the filter and pump simultaneously while the CPSC Series chlorinator is off or in manual mode to circulate the water and dissolve the salt. Do not throw the salt bag into the pool or spa as chemicals and inks on the bag can interfere with the water balance.

However, the ideal level for operation is 3500 ppm. To achieve this level of salinity, add 30 lbs. of salt for every 1000 gallons of water.
