Yes, you can use liquid stabilizer in a pool with a cartridge filter. Liquid stabilizers, typically cyanuric acid, help protect chlorine from being broken down by sunlight. When adding stabilizer, ensure it's well-dissolved and evenly distributed in the pool to avoid any clumping. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the appropriate dosage based on your pool's volume.
Excessive levels of chlorine stabilizer can reduce the effectiveness of chlorine in the pool. Try diluting the pool water by partially draining and refilling it to lower the stabilizer concentration. Test the water again after dilution to see if the chlorine levels improve.
No, pool shock is normally a really strong chlorine and stabilizer is like sunscreen for the chlorine
no
you have to aid a conditioner or stabilizer with cynaric acid in it.
Add chlorine and stabilizer.
Ad cyanuric acid/stabilizer, this is available from your pool shop
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.
"There are several components needed for pool chemistry; a dry or liquid chlorine along with a chlorine stabilizer, an acid for balancing pH, an algaecide to control and kill algae and also soda ash."
Yes, you can use chlorine in a pool without a filter, but it is not recommended. A filter is essential for removing debris and contaminants from the water, and without a filter, the effectiveness of the chlorine may be reduced, leading to poor water quality and potential health risks. It is best to use both chlorine and a filter for optimal pool maintenance.
No, muriatic acid and HTH stabilizer are not the same. Muriatic acid is a strong acid used to lower the pH of pool water, while HTH stabilizer (cyanuric acid) is used to prevent chlorine in the pool from being broken down by the sun's rays. Both serve different purposes in pool maintenance.
Have you tested cyanuric acid ( stabilizer ) ?
make sure chlorine is is at 1-3ppm, if pH is very low raise chlorine slightly higer than average. shock the pool after and run filter for over night. If pool still not stabilize then add PH high chemical.
