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).
Why does the PH in my pool remain high even after using muriatic acid?
You probably didn't put enough acid in it.
How long does it take for us to get in a pool if you put acid?

What are the ingredients for pool acid?
pool acid is made up of muriatic or hydrochloric acid that is it.
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.
What is in liquid pool acid?
liquid pool acid is Muriatic acid or more commonly know as Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
I am using a lot of acid in my pool?
That Acid is called Muriatic Acid. You put it in your swimming pool to lower the PH of the water. At lower PH Levels, the chlorine you use to sanitize the pool is more active, as a disinfectant. You MUST be careful not to put too MUCH Muriatic Acid in your pool! PH that is too low will create potentially deadly fumes, so test your water. Low pH is corrosive to plaster and metal pool parst.
How soon can you swim after adding sulfuric acid?
It will mix very quickly so you can swim immediately. However what are you putting sulphuric acid in your pool for you should be using hydrochloric or mercuric acid

How long to wait to swim after adding hydrocloric acid to pool?
Acid dilutes very fast, add it to your pool (while running to help circulation) and you should be ready to swim in about 30min. Best way to add it is by using a 5gal bucket, fill it so that you have room to add the acid then walk around the pool pouring into the edges of the pool. This will keep from damaging your plaster especially if your pool has dark plaster or pebble tech plaster. Hope you found this helpful..
Lower PH in pool with household products?
You lower the Ph by using Muriatic acid VERY carefully. This acid and it's vapour is dangerous. With the pool pump ON, carefully add 1/4 gallon at a time, waiting 6 hours then testing.
If you clean a salt water chlorinator using acid is it OK to dump the acid and sodium by products back into the pool?
You could add it back to the pool, if you need to lower the pH - but why put all the gunk the cell has taken from the water, back into the water? Better to discard the cell cleaning acid and use fresh acid to lower pH.
