Why is choosing pool salt important?
Salt is the raw material used by your salt chlorine generator. Through a process called electrolysis, the system transforms the salt dissolved in the water into chlorine to ensure continuous pool disinfection.
Salt quality directly influences:
Chlorine generator performance.
Water quality.
Maintenance frequency.
Equipment lifespan.
Salt containing more impurities can cause:
Deposit buildup in the generator cell.
Less clear water.
Increased maintenance needs.
Premature equipment wear.
To achieve the best possible results, it is recommended to use a salt specially designed for salt pools, such as Premium Pristiva Salt.

The Premium Pristiva Salt is a high-purity salt specifically designed for pools equipped with a salt chlorine generator.
Its superior quality formulation allows for:
Crystal-clear water.
An incomparable feeling of softness.
Optimal chlorine generator efficiency.
A reduction in unwanted contaminants.
Unlike some generic salts, Premium Pristiva Salt contains an extremely low level of impurities such as:
Iron.
Phosphates.

The benefits of Sel Premium Pristiva
Soft and comfortable water
One of the main reasons owners choose a salt pool is swimming comfort.
Thanks to its high purity, Sel Premium Pristiva helps create water that is:
- Softer on the skin.
- More comfortable for the eyes.
- More pleasant for hair.
- Less irritating than traditional chlorine treatments.
Many pool owners even describe the feeling as comparable to that of a spa.
Crystal-clear water
Clear water depends not only on the filtration system. The quality of the salt also plays an important role.
Thanks to its high purity level, Sel Premium Pristiva allows the generator to produce chlorine efficiently and consistently.
"Crystal-clear water doesn't happen by chance. It starts with the right salt."
Result:
- Clear water.
- Better clarity.
- Superior visual quality.
A clean and inviting pool always starts with well-balanced water.
Better protection for your salt generator
The chlorine generator represents a significant investment.
When salt contains contaminants or unwanted minerals, these can promote:
Deposits in the cell.
Scaling.
A decrease in chlorine production.
More frequent maintenance needs.
Thanks to its low impurity content, Sel Premium Pristiva helps keep your equipment in excellent condition longer.
Consistent quality
Each bag of Sel Premium Pristiva is made according to high standards to offer consistent quality.
This way, you get a reliable product that helps maintain the salinity level recommended by your chlorine generator's manufacturer.
When should you add salt to a pool?
Unlike chlorine, salt does not evaporate. However, several situations may require adding salt.
When opening the pool
After winter, the salt level may be below the recommendations of your generator's manufacturer.
A water analysis then determines the necessary amount.
After a complete filling
When the pool is refilled with fresh water, enough salt must be added to reach the recommended salinity level.
After a significant water loss
Adding salt is often necessary after:
- A backwash.
- A partial drain.
- A leak.
- A repair.
- A significant water replacement.
Since salt leaves the pool with drained water, it must be replaced to maintain optimal generator operation.
What is the ideal salt level in a pool?
Each chlorine generator has its own recommendations.
In most cases, systems operate with a salinity level between:
3,000 to 4,000 ppm
It is always recommended to consult your generator’s manual to confirm the optimal value.
A level that is too low can reduce chlorine production.
A level that is too high can cause error messages or harm the operation of certain equipment.
How much Pristiva Premium Salt should be added?
The required amount depends on:
The volume of pool water.
The current salt level.
The desired salt level.
