Where do you store pool salt?Reply

Hello Carpenter - The salt should be stored in a dry place like a shed, garage, or storage container.Reply

I store my chemicals inside an outdoor plastic container all year round and the chemicals seem fine and I have done this for over 4 years now.Reply

sam - Unfortunately, there is no good answer for this one in the southern states. The only cool and dry place is in your house and I would not store chemicals there. Next best is your garage but I'd do that on a limited basis mostly to keep the acid separate from the chlorine. Many people store their pool chemicals in a lockable plastic shed in the area around the pool.Reply

The large plastic storage box, (approx.5ft.W x 5ft.H x 4’ft. D) Has a few metal pieces, how can rust be prevented? Thanks !!Reply

You can try to spray the metal pieces with a weather coating or heavy-duty wd-40.Reply
