corrected for pool chemicals

There are many factors that should be considered when working with swimming pool chemicals and caring for a swimming pool. A few simple routines will keep your water clear for the season with minimal effort. The key is planning. Don't let the spring weather hit you before you know what your plan is. What chemicals will you need to startup the pool and also keep it going for the first 30 days? Have it on hand, plan ahead. This recipe for swimming pool maintenance follows the standard Chlorine and Calcium hypochlorite shock routine.

Measure and adjust the following levels

1) pH to 7.2-7.6

2) Total Alkalinity to 80-150 ppm

3) Calcium Hardness 200-400 ppm for concrete or 175-225 ppm for vinyl

4) Free Chlorine to 1-3 ppm

Treat with a stain preventative such as Pool Stain Treat or Sequasol to avoid metals in the water from staining the pool surface.

Apply a shock (oxidizer) such as Calcium Hypochlorite at a rate of 2 Lb. per 10,000 gallons initially and 1 Lb. per 10,000 gallons weekly. Remember, the chlorine kills the bacteria, the shock gets it out of the water.

Alternative sanitizers such as the Pool Frog , Nature2 or Pool Wizard utilize copper and other mineral ions to trap bacteria and reduce chlorine usage by 50-80%. Be sure to follow their recommendations as to proper chlorine levels.
