About 2 cups
The number of cups in a pound of pool shock treatment varies depending on the density of the product. On average, there are approximately 2 to 2.5 cups of pool shock treatment in a pound. It is recommended to check the packaging or product label for specific instructions on measuring.
Yes, pool shock typically contains chlorine as the active ingredient to sanitize and disinfect the pool water.
Pool shock typically contains a higher concentration of chlorine compared to regular pool chlorine products. Pool shock is used to quickly raise the chlorine levels in the water to kill bacteria and algae, while regular pool chlorine is used for maintenance and to keep the chlorine levels stable over time.
Check the packaging for the specific weight of one cup of the chemical granules. Then weigh out the correct number of cups needed to reach one pound on a kitchen scale. It's important to be precise when measuring pool chemicals to avoid over or under-dosing.
No, chlorine and shock are not the same. Chlorine is a chemical used to sanitize and disinfect pool water, while shock is a stronger dose of chlorine used to quickly kill bacteria and algae in the pool.

I was told 2 cups is a pound by the girl at Leslie's Pool. But I'm trying to verify.
There are 8 ounces in a cup so 20 ounces is 2 1/2 cups
If you do not want to do complex calculations, you can use non-chlorine shock which is Potassium Monopersulfate. It comes in one pound packages. Throw in 1 lb every two weeks if it is a lightly used pool, 2LB every two weeks if it is a heavier used pool. 3LB if you regularly pee in the pool.
one pound of cal hypo, granule chlorine, will treat 10,000 gallons of pool water. So use 1/4 pound to shock, two or three times that if pool goes green. If pool has a vinyl liner use sodium hypochloride, liquid shock, instead of granules.
There are 16 ounces in a pound. Therefore, a pound of granular pool chlorine contains 16 ounces.
Backwash first then shock. If you shock and then backwash you will be throwing away the shock you just put.
an average dosage rating would be 1 pound of calcium hypochlorite per 10,000 gallons
16 ounces.
The price for a pound of chlorine can vary depending on the supplier and location, but on average it typically costs between $1 to $3 per pound. It is recommended to check with local pool supply stores or hardware stores for the most up-to-date prices.
