Where to store muriatic acid?

Answer 1

Where to Get Muriatic AcidMost pool stores carry this kind of liquid acid. If not they all carry "Dry Acid" of "Sodium Bisulfate". Each pound of Sodium Bisulfate is the same as using 10 ounces of Muriatic Acid in pool water.

Here are more opinions and answers from other FAQ Farmers:

• You can usually find Muriatic acid at Home Depot next to all the pool supplies.

• I buy Muratic Acid at Albertson's Grocery store believe it or not.

• I heard from pool dealer that this product is very toxic try Lo'n Slo from Bioguard instead.

• Loon in the paint section of hardware and lumber stores. It is not toxic to the pool.

• Here's the cheapest way: go to a pool store and buy pH decrease. 10 parts water to 1 part decrease.

• I get my acid from a dealer dealing with cleansers such as bleach, dishsoap etc. Muriatic acid is the best and easiest way to reduce pH levels, but it has many other uses to.

• You can buy muriatic acid in the Outside Garden section near the pool supplies at any of the Home Depot stores.
