Yes, If you have a saltwater pool that is the same stuff as is normally used (sodium chloride). Or if you don't have a saltwater chlorinator it wont hurt.
The most common problem with salt not meant for pools is the additives that get put in them. The most common being the anticaking agent YPS (yellow prussiate of soda) that will clog the fins in the cell of a salt water chlorinator. Be sure it is not iodized and has less than 1% of anything like YPS. Seems like it would take an awful lot of table salt considering mine requires 325 lbs of salt!

∙ 14y agoIf you have chlorine generator, it may stop working and the water will taste salty ( above 3500 PPM = parts per million). Drain about 1 ft of pool water using water pump and refill with fresh water, if you do not have any pump put a garden hose into your pool ( not close to the overlow) and turn it on. Water running out of the pool through overflow will remove excesive salt (may take several hours). Salt does not evaporate, there is no other way but to remove partialy water from your pool. Marie
