Would you ever need to put chlorine in a salt water pool?

In most cases, you do not need to add chlorine to a saltwater pool. The chlorine generator in the pool continuously converts salt into chlorine, so there should be enough chlorine in the pool to keep it clean. However, there are some circumstances where you may need to add chlorine to a saltwater pool.

For example, if the pool has been heavily used or if there has been a lot of rain, the chlorine levels may be depleted and you may need to add some chlorine to bring them back up. Additionally, if you are having problems with algae or bacteria in the pool, you may need to add some chlorine to kill the organisms.

When adding chlorine to a saltwater pool, it is important to follow the directions on the product label carefully. You do not want to add too much chlorine, as this can damage the pool equipment and irritate your skin and eyes.

If you are not sure whether you need to add chlorine to your saltwater pool, it is always best to test the water first. You can purchase a chlorine test kit from your local pool store or online. The test kit will tell you the chlorine level in the pool and whether you need to add more chlorine.
