![]() ![]() Maintain your calcium hardness levels on the low side, around 180-200 ppm. High calcium hardness levels in a pool will accelerate scale buildup on your salt cell you probably could have assumed that much. Maintain your TA level on the low side as well, around 80-90 ppm. High levels of carbonates can make it difficult to reduce your pH level and also contribute to the scaly stuff that is attracted to the electrically charged metallic plates. High total alkalinity levels in your pool can also be a factor. Maintaining your pH level on the low side, around 7.2-7.4, will reduce scale buildup on your salt cell. The number one cause of this is high pH levels. Adding salt to the pool will raise the pH level in the pool, and the sodium hypochlorite that a saltwater chlorinator produces will also raise pH. ![]() Ironically, the salts that you add to the pool are the same salts that will deposit themselves onto your salt cell.
