APPLICATION IN SWIMMING POOLS
- Adjust pH between 7.2 and 7.6 prior to using this product.
- Initial chlorination – Add 2-6 ounces per 10,000 gallons of water to provide 1-3 ppm available chlorine.
- Superchlorination - Superchlorinate by broadcasting in the deep end of the pool at the rate of 10-20 ounces per 10,000 gallons to provide 5-10 ppm available chlorine. Superchlorinate every 14 days when water temperature is below 80ºF and every 7 days when temperature is higher.
- Algae Control - Should algae develop, broadcast at the rate of 20 ounces per 10,000 gallons of pool water. Immediately scrub affected area, vacuum and cycle through filter. Repeat dosage if algae growth is persistent.
- Winterizing – Gradually apply 6 oz. per 10,000 gallons; run filter until dispersion is complete. Cover the pool.
