Here is an excerpt from http://www.deh.enr.state.nc.us/ehs/chem.htm#sup "Once added to the pool, cyanuric acid does not dissipate. It is removed from the pool only by splash out and backwash waste. " As for chlorine always being low, test for ortho phosphates.
Should chlorine tablets be used in place of stabilizer chlorine tablets so the cyanuric acid don't get to high?
Yes, when chlorine gas reacts with an acid, such as hydrochloric acid, it can form toxic chlorine gas. The reaction releases chlorine gas, which can be harmful if inhaled in high concentrations. It is important to handle chlorine gas and acids with caution to prevent the formation of toxic gases.
TCCA (trichloroisocyanuric acid) typically contains about 90% available chlorine. This high percentage makes it an effective disinfectant and sanitizer for water treatment and other applications.
during the chlorination the needed amount of chlorine will combine with water and two acids are formed [1] hypochlorrus acid [2]hypochloric acid. in this hypochlorrus acid kill the bacteria present in the water
Keep the acid content too high for a while and a lit of staining will tend to get bleached out.
Adjust your pH to 7.4 ; alkalinity to 80-120 with acid. Add more 12.5% chlorine. If you are using household 5% bleach you are getting nowhere fast. k I agree. You can not control the chlorine levels with the PH being right first. Concentrate on the PH.
Don't do anything. Chlorine goes away on its own, which is why you must monitor it and keep it at the correct level. If you have too much, wait a few days. If it is hotter than normal out, the chlorine will go away faster than normal.
Chlorine can be dangerous to humans in high concentrations. Inhaling chlorine gas can cause respiratory issues, skin contact with chlorine gas or liquid can cause burns, and ingesting large amounts of chlorine can be toxic. It is important to always handle and use chlorine products according to safety guidelines.
To lower pH, you can add pH decreaser (such as sodium bisulfate) following manufacturer's instructions. To raise chlorine levels, you can add liquid chlorine or chlorine tablets according to the pool size and current chlorine levels. Retest after a few hours and adjust as needed.
Keep your PH at 7.0-7.4 and use adequate chlorine. PH is very important, because if it gets too high, the chlorine will not work. To lower PH, you will need to get Muriatic acid at your hardware store. Use it with caution.
A strong acid completely dissociates in water, producing a high concentration of hydronium ions. This results in a low pH value and high acidity. Examples of strong acids include hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4).
Chlorine attached to alpha carbon of ethanoic acid is electron attracting group due to high electronegativity so through inductive effect the electron pair of O-H bond is more attracted towards oxygen atom and removal of H+ ion is easier as compare to ethanoic acid so chloro ethanoic acid is stronger acid.
