Recently moved into a rental with a plunge pool. It currently has a salt water/mineral chlorinator. What chemicals do I need to put in it?
Thank you

Welcome to TFP! 
Once a salt pool's water is initially balanced, it typically requires muriatic acid to control the pH. Occasionally you may have to add more salt or stabilizer (CYA). If the TA falls below 50 some baking soda. If it's a plaster pool, perhaps some calcium. That's about it. I like to keep a gallon or two of liquid chlorine in the laundry room for emergencies if the salt cell acts-up and the FC crashes for some reason.

As always, be sure you are testing your water properly. In your area, TFP member go to Clear Choice Labs for the equivalent of the Taylor K-2006C test kit.
