You should use 1 tab per 5,000 gallons each week.
Your pool is about 2200 gallons.
1/2 a tab each week will do. If it cannot be broken in half, use one tab each week.
For an above ground pool such as a summer escapes pool by pool poly, fill the inside of your filter with tabs. Approx. 8-10 tabs. Replace basket and place back into pump. Turn on pump and let it run.
try it out and tell me
How do you know that it is in fact a chlorine stain unless you have been using chlorine tabs and the tabs are tossed, spilled or dropped into the pool. Tabs will burn the surface that it touches and often these stains are not removable.
I use 2 tabs of chlorine the 2" tabs in a floater it works well.
4
Car tabs???
depends on how deep your well is and how high the water is in it
Sure you can use liquid chlorine and walk around the pool. You can use granular chlorine directly into the pool. If it doesn't disolve before it gets to the bottom you should brush it around so it won't stain. Never add pucks/tabs directly to the pool OR THE SKIMMER. (BAD FOR THE EQUIPMENT) They will sink to the bottom and stain.
wow slow down there!!! adding to much stabelized chlorine over time will add too much cyanuric acid aka stabelizer or (CYA).So this means your pool water is out of balance a lot. red burning eyes,itchy skin are the first signs of improper balance. The only way to reduce cya is to drain out water and replace with new. you can do it yourself or use a pool service, Your check book will answer that for you.You will need a cya test kit although you can buy seperatly or buy with a complete kit which you should have anyway If your CYA is over 100 and approaching 150 then you may have too much CYA in the pool. Granular and tabs used exclusively will cause the CYA to be raised. Alternate monthly between the granular or tabs and 12.5% liq. chlorine. This will increase the time it takes to build the CYA. Or switch over to liq. until the CYA is within acceptable range. You will need to drain the pool pratially to lower the CYA. To do this usually takes a separate submersable pump to which you attach a hose.
because he was tabs
If you are using small or jumbo tabs that may contribute to the problem. You will need to add baking soda to raise the levels into the range in which your kit can detect. Use a digital meter to determine alkalinity the range. Your range should be 80-120 ppm. Or you could be adding too much acid. Get a sample of the water to a pool store soon. k
yes, it is perfectly ok to put tabs in skimmer basket. +++ NO: it is NOT OK - unless the manufacturers of the particular skimmers, pumps and filters on your pool advise it is permissible. Buy either a proper in-line tablet feeder (it goes in the return pipe downstream from the filter) or floating basket-type tablet dispensers. The skimmers are NOT chemical dispensers.
