Pool salt that can be found at a pool supply or some Home depot or Lowes stores. Wal- Mart stores also carry pool salt but their salt doesn't seem to last as long.

I normally by my pool salt at Leslie's Pool Supply - Their brand. There are lots of options. Lowes and even Walmart sell Morton's Pool Salt. Just be sure to test or have your pool tested prior to adding the salt. If you add too much, you just have to drain a little and add fresh water so not even a worry there. I LOVE my salt water pool and often wonder why it took me so long to make the switch. Good luck.

Any salt should work, but sea salt is best. The amount depends on your individual chemistry. Add very slowly in small amounts- swishing your feet around a bit - until the amps get close to 20. Its harder to get it back down than to inch the levels up.

About a well-rounded tablespoon of kosher-style salt. Would be more with table salt.

Salt is salt is salt is salt. Regular softener salt ought to work, but it often is quite coarse and you may have trouble putting in that small hole on the softener.

I have no idea. I use the salt for my slim and hair, as well as soaking my muscles in hot water. Beyond that I have very little knowledge.

Sea salt is fine to use. Sea salt is a mix of primarily sodium chloride with other salts of potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Table salt is typically sodium chloride with some iodine (for thyroid health). The role of salt in the neti pot solution is to balance the osmotic pressure between your cells and the nasal wash solution. Plain sodium chloride can do this, but many people prefer sea salt or mined salts for their mix of salts. In western medicine, "normal saline" is used to increase blood volume or rinse wounds and is composed of just sodium chloride and water.

I'm sorry, I really don't know. I put a clean piece of cord board in the middle, and put regular salt on one side, and sea salt on the other. So far, works great.

I haven't actually ever refilled the salt but I remember that several other reviewers posted instructions on how to refill the salt. Good luck!

You need to buy it. And it takes alot of salt at frist to get it going after that not much at all. It does a great job.

The sea salt is just a gimmick to make people think it is a different more healthy salt. The truth is sals is salt NaCl. Almost all salt comes from the oceans from one time or another.

No, salt is dissolved in the water, you have to distill salt water to make it fresh.

pool salt from Home Depot, Lowes or a local pool store. Just don't buy rock salt as it has so much dirt in it you will be starting over cleaning up the pool.

Pickling Salt is a finer grind. Use this one because it desolves fast and compleletly. The regular salt is a course grind and sometimes does not desolve well in your brine. You end up with salt granuals in your brine and it is not as salty as it should be.

P. S. Only use regular salt. Tiny amount at a time. It's easy to to go over the pH.

The salt is fine. Most sea salt we see in the store is too course, but this is fine and we use it both for table salt and popcorn salt. The best sea salt we've found.
