We simply add chlorine tabs until the pH is the correct color on the strips. Even if we knew it would be 62.4 lbs of salt, it’s not like you can buy a 62.4 lb bag of salt.
But yeah, it is a lot harder to do applied math in the US, which is why science here went metric :)
It’s a shame because salt water pools are honestly so much better and I think overall it was cheaper for us as well.
Instead of adding chlorine every week the salt system just keeps the chlorine level at the right minimal level all the time. So no chlorine smell in the pool and the pool was much cleaner.
Home pools here are almost never saltwater.
