Stabilizer can effect the pH some but usually it is a very minor amount. You should be able to swim the same day.
If I am not mistaken you do not add alkaline to pools. A product would be used to raise the alkalinity. You can add stabilizer/conditioner at anytime. k
When adding stabilizer to a pool you should not have a backwash valve open. Stabilizer should be added directly into the skimmer basket and you should open the skimmer all the way and close off the main drains for 24 hours.
Shock your pool at sundown and you can swim in it the next morning.
maybe if you like to hurt yourself
Any time you like calcium is harmless
Read the label, but usually it is safe. Pool Masters
you should have your pool tested just to be on the safe side.
No, pool shock is normally a really strong chlorine and stabilizer is like sunscreen for the chlorine
There are no known ill effects from too much stabilizer in the pool. Most health departments require draining if stabilizer is more than 100 ppm. But most agree that even up to 150 ppm causes no harm to humans. High levels do cause a slower chlorine reaction to contaminants. It was previously thought that high stabilizer levels resulted in chlorine lock, but that has been proven to be false.
no
Most 50% algaecides if added properly according to gallons of water in your pool allow you to swim immediatly after adding.
you have to aid a conditioner or stabilizer with cynaric acid in it.
My pool store said wait 5 hours, but it probably depends on the amount and concentration (liquid or powder).
