🧂 Pool Salt Calculator
Estimate the amount of salt to add to reach the ideal salinity level.
1. Pool Volume
I already have the volume
Calculate volume
m³
Tip: 1 m³ = 1000 litres.
Rectangular
Round / Oval

m
For an oval pool, use the average of the major and minor axes as the diameter.
m³
2. Salinity
ppm
Measured with a tester or test strip. 0 if new water.
ppm
1500 (low salinity)
3000 (standard)
3500
6000 (high-output chlorinator)
3. Salt Bag
kg / bag
Salt to add
— kg
Formula: salt (kg) = volume (L) × (target salinity − current salinity) in ppm ÷ 1,000,000.
Add salt gradually, let the filtration run for 24 hours, then check the salinity before adding more. This is an estimate; always refer to your chlorinator manufacturer's recommendations.
