How salty is the water in a salt pool and is it corrosive to my pool equipment?
The saline level in a salt pool (at 3,500 PPM) is a fraction of that in sea water. The concentration of salt in the ocean is 3.5 %, while your new pool water is 0.4%. This is a approximately half the salinity of your own tears and is not sufficiently high enough to create a corrosion problem to your pool equipment. Salt water only begins to become corrosive at dilutions in excess of 7,000 PPM.
