Early morning or in the evening or even at night; heat and sunlight reduce the effects of chlorine or other shock methods.

Is it ok to shock a pool two days in a row?

Generally you should shock about every 7 to 10 days. To find out exactly when you need to shock, and how much, you need to check your combined chlorine levels. Shocking will beore necessary when bather loads are high, or a lot of debris is present. I also recommend shocking if the pool is cloudy or has algae, as both are usually caused by low chlorine..... Best advise I can give to any pool owner is to test your chlorine regularly. Once a week is not enough, especially in the summer months. You can usually get away without shocking as often in off months. Also shock if the chlorine feels and smells high, but the test shows it is not. This means chlorimines are present which need to be superchlorinated out.


What can you do if your pool water is white instead of clear?

I turned my pool water whiteI just turned my pool water white, by accident, of course, because I put too much PH balancer in at the same time as my shock-it. Apparently you are supposed to wait at least 2 hrs after the shock-it. I'm having to replace 1/2 my water with fresh, and am pumping just air into it. It's clearing a little, but this looks like it's going to take a few days. When I test it, my pH it perfect but I don't show any br or chlor, at all, after 2 bags of shock-it. Great start to a hot summer, huh? Shock-it has no chlorine. next time you shock your pool be sure to usechlorine chlorine tabs or granules to maintain the chlorine levels.
