How long should I wait before putting in the next pool chemical?
I know how much of each chemical to put in, i need to know how long to wait before putting in the next chemical. I’ll be adding ph down, stabilizer, calcium, alkalinity,cholrine, shock, and algeacide. Thanks in advance.
I did the water analysis on aquachem.com, it’s supposed to be accurate.
Adjust your alkalinity/pH first. Then shock. Then calcium. Then algaecide, if it is really necessary. Lastly, stabilizer and chlorine. Three to four hours between each treatment is sufficient time. You want to make sure that you do the stabilizer and chlorine last because they take longer to work. Also, you might want to time it so that you shock your pool in late afternoon/early evening. It will be more effective because sunlight evaporates the chlorine very quickly. The shock will have more time to do its job if you do it at night.
