PPM = Parts Per Million
A measurement of the concentration, or mixing ratio of one substance in another.
Parts per million
less than 1000ppm
Drain some of your pool and refill it with fresh water.
The recommended chlorine level for disinfecting private pools can be as high as 2.0 PPM. 2 ppm is now the minimum. Recommended levels are now 1.5 ppm to 5.0 ppm.
Chlorine level should stay between 1.0 and 3.0 parts per million (ppm) to maintain a healthy pool.
.03g/L or 30 ppm or 1 lb for 3800 gallons (14400 liters)
Enough to bring the readings to within 1.5 to 5.0 ppm. Ues a test kit!!
salt is based on PPM or parts per million and a salt system operates around 3000 PPM on most systems. If you have no salt in your pool the amount of salt to add would be around 200 pounds but if you have some salt in the system then you need to find the ppm already in the pool and adjust as needed. Do not forget to add cyneric acid or you will lose what sanitizer is produced on the hot days.
You can buy salt test strips and electronic salt testers at any good pool supply store - Leslie's carries them.
'Swimming Pool', sometimes shortened to 'Pool'.
The same as a non-salt system pool. Disregard answer above. The only reading that will remain constant, in the above situation, is the alkalinity =80 - 120 ppm; pH = 7.4 - 7.6 For a salt system pool your conditioner/stabilizer should be slightly higher than a namually fed pool. You should achieve readings of 75 - 85 ppm.
How much acid and chlorine should be added to a 5000 liter to make 5 ppm solution
