Is Baquacil Shock the same product as Baquacil Shock and Oxidizer?
Yes, "Baquashock", "Baquacil Shock", and "Baquacil Shock and Oxidizer" are all synonymous. Baquacil has been changing the names through the evolution but it's the same product. Most companies are now selling it as "Oxidizer (Shock)" - http://www.backyardexpress.com/baquaspa-oxidizer-shock.html
When can you swim after putting baquacil oxidizer?
Some sources state that you can swim within fifteen minutes of adding baquacil to the pool. It is usually recommended however, to wait around an hour.
How do you start up a freshly filled pool with Baquacil?
Oxidizer, Metal Control (if needed), Sanitizer and Algistat, then Algaecide. Wait at least 1 hr btw adding products and always have filter running.
How do you convert from baquacil to chlorine if algae is present in the pool?
To get rid of algae in a Baquacil pool, the best thing to use is the Performance Algaecide. The algae will actually get worse if converting because you have to wait until the Baqua reading is at zero before converting which could take at least several days because the Oxidizer is designed to last for an entire month. I can send you instructions by e-mail re converting from baquacil to chlorine and/or the saline system. E-mail me. What is your email address?
What are baquacil do's and dont's?
A major DO for Baquacil is chemically cleaning the filter MONTHLY.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of baquicil?
I have been using Baquacil for 18 years in an in-ground pool. I used chlorine in an above ground pool prior. The cost difference is obvious. Starting off new, Baquacil is very expensive. As the years go on, the cost of the sanitizer drops dramatically because of the baquacil buildup in the water. You dont have the chlorine smell and the eye burning. I recommend washing the baquacil from your hair since the hair tends to get heavy after swimming. Foaming is also a problem with baquacil. I still prefer baquacil and intend to use it after I install a new liner next year.

What were the fuel oxidizer combinations used on each of the stages of the Redstone missile?
The Redstone rocket was fueled by a mixture of 25% H20 and 75% ethanol, and used liquid oxygen as the oxidizer. Redstone carried 19,000 lbs of fuel and 25,000 of oxidizer. Steam to drive the fuel and oxidizer pumps was produced by the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (790 lbs of this were carried by Redstone).
