Best Answer

NO -------

Dishwasher salt is, however, the same as softener salt as used in water softeners for houses. You could use granular or tablet form. It's approximately one third to one quarter of the price per pound /kilo. You may be causing more harm to the pool & equipment by using other type salt. The savings from the wrong salt could result in replacing major components of the pool system. Not a good idea. Use what is recommended - there is a reason for those recommendations.

Can kidney transplant patients swim in salt water pools?

I answer this question as a kidney transplant patient myself. Swimming in salt water itself poses no risk to a kidney transplant patient. The phrase 'a salt water pool' may mean a swimming pool which uses salt to generate chlorine. This is not the same as swimming in salt water. A pool which uses salt to generate chlorine should not be dangerous, though it will be a somewhat weaker form of chlorine. If at all in doubt, ask your doctor.


What is the recommended hardness range for salt pools?

Same as Chlorinated pools: 80-120 ppm. A salt pool is the same as a non- salt pool. Only difference is the chlorine is made in the system thru automation/mechanically. With the addition of swimming pool salt to the water it in turn goes thru the device and returns to the pool as chlorine. Otherwise you add the chlorine manually. k

How much salt per gal of water for swimming pool?

If you have purchased Saline System equipment, you add regular 'salt' to the pool water. The salt (sodium chloride) is pure evaporated ocean salt - the same as you would use at the dinner table. Use 'rock' salt, but make sure it is sodium chloride and not potassium chloride (which is sold for some types of water softeners). Minimum salinty varies with the brand of saline system equipment, but is usually in the 3000-4000ppm range. 3000ppm is the same as 0.3%, by weight. Multply gallons x 8.33 to get weight of water in pounds, then x 0.003 to get pounds of salt.


Where will you experience greater pressure swimming in the sea or in the pool at the same depth?

You will experience greater pressure swimming in the sea than in a pool at the same depth. This is because the sea is denser than pool water, so the pressure exerted by the water due to its weight will be greater in the sea.
