To determine the alkalinity of a pool, you can use a water testing kit or test strips specifically designed for pool chemistry. These tests measure the total alkalinity, usually expressed in parts per million (ppm), which indicates the pool's ability to resist changes in pH. A suitable range for pool alkalinity is typically between 80-120 ppm. Regular testing helps maintain balanced water chemistry and ensures a comfortable swimming environment.

How do I know the amount of swimming pool chemicals I need for my home swimming pool?

You will need to add an amount of chemicals that is proportional to the size of your pool. The containers of the chemicals should tell you how much to add for the size of pool you have. It might be better if you take a sample of water to a local pool supply store, so that they can tell you exactly what you need for your specific pool. http://www.ehow.com/about_5390392_chemicals-put-new-pool.html
