Questions & Answers

HOW OFTEN SHOULD THIS BE ADDED TO THE POOL?
During the swim season I add shock once per week
Does this contain CYA
This product does not contain CYA (Cyanuric Acid). It is Calcium Hypochlorite.
Is this for above ground pool also it?s a salt water pool
Yes, this shock can be used in above-ground pools, including saltwater pools.
Why does my order show "unbranded"? This should be DryTec shock.
Does this dissolve before hitting the bottom of the pool?
Yes, this product dissolves quickly in water and should not reach the bottom of the pool if added correctly. It's important to follow the instructions on the packaging for proper application to avoid staining or damaging the pool surface.
Is 68% hypochlorite safe for a liner pool or would it be better to go with one w/ less percentage?
No I do not think it is safe for a liner pool I think mine leaked from the bottom shortly after using this product
I just bought a 10' x 30" inflatable pool with pump & filter. It holds 1,000 gallons of water. How much should I add to the pool? If 1 lb. treats 10,000 gallons of water, would 1/10 of the bag be enough? I hope my math is correct, TIA
There are many factors that affect how much chlorine you need to add to your pool but I can tell you 1/10 of a bag is never enough it depends on where you live and how much sun your pool receives the more sun the more chlorine you need. I have an 18 foot round pool in Florida and during the summer I add one full bag every four days
Doesn’t sound like much does it. Best to get test strips and add a 10th at a time until it gets to the proper level.
