To convert from Baquacil (a brand of Biguanide) to chlorine for pool sanitation, you'll need to first completely remove Baquacil from the pool. This typically involves draining a significant portion of the water, cleaning the pool surfaces, and then refilling with fresh water. After refilling, you can add a chlorine shock treatment to establish a chlorine baseline. It's essential to test the water and balance the pH and alkalinity before introducing regular chlorine sanitizers.

Follow the instructions on the test kit to accurately measure the sanitizer levels in your Baquacil pool.
