What else can I help you with?
Can you add muriatic acid to a pebble tec pool to maintain proper pH level or will it harm the pool?
Yes, you can use muriatic acid to control pH in a pebbletec pool. Added correctly (spread around the pool with circulation equipment operating) muriatic acid will not harm the pool. As a matter of fact muriatic or hydrachloric is the best thing to use but I suggest you dilute it 4 parts water 1 part acid for safety to you and your equipment
What is the purpose of adding muriatic acid to pools?
In order to not cause irritation of the eyes and skin, the pH of the pool water should be between 7.2 - 7.6. Muriatic acid is added to the pool to lower the pH if it is too high.
How do you remove the salt deposit from around the pool ladder?
You can try the following cleaning solutions; muriatic acid, bleach solution and battery solution.
What are the ingredients for pool acid?
Pool acid typically refers to muriatic acid, which is a common acid used to lower the pH levels in swimming pools. The main ingredient is hydrochloric acid. It is important to handle muriatic acid with care as it is highly corrosive and should be diluted before adding it to the pool water.
How do you shock a pool using muriatic acid?
You can't! Muriatic acid (~32% HCL) will not add any free chlorine to the pool and will not function as a oxidizer (Shock).
What is in liquid pool acid?
liquid pool acid is Muriatic acid or more commonly know as Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
Is muriatic acid the same as hth stabilizer?
No, muriatic acid and HTH stabilizer are not the same. Muriatic acid is a strong acid used to lower the pH of pool water, while HTH stabilizer (cyanuric acid) is used to prevent chlorine in the pool from being broken down by the sun's rays. Both serve different purposes in pool maintenance.
Source of muriatic acid?
Hardware stores, Pool shops.
How can I remove Brown stains in marbelite pool?
Drain pool and clean with muriatic acid
How do you lower the pH in a pool?
Muriatic Acid....Be real careful though.
What are the differences between muriatic acid and hydrochloric acid when it comes to their use in pool maintenance?
Muriatic acid and hydrochloric acid are essentially the same chemical compound, with hydrochloric acid being the pure form and muriatic acid being a diluted form. In pool maintenance, muriatic acid is commonly used to lower pH levels and alkalinity, while hydrochloric acid is more concentrated and may be used for more heavy-duty cleaning tasks. It is important to follow safety precautions and dilution instructions when handling either acid in pool maintenance.
How can the ph level of a pool be lowered?
The pH level of a pool can be lowered by using a specific acid that is sold at pool supply stores. The acid is called muriatic acid, and it should be added to the pool while the water is circulating. About 1/4 gallon of the muriatic should be added per .1 part per million the pH needs to be lowered.
