You should add a few granules to some water, and then add this water to your hot tub water a very small amount at a time. See the related link I posted for more information on testing and using the chemicals.
Add chlorine and stabilizer.
you have to aid a conditioner or stabilizer with cynaric acid in it.
Shock first, then check your stabilizer. Add stabilizer as needed.
Stabilizer can effect the pH some but usually it is a very minor amount. You should be able to swim the same day.
Remove some water in container (10-20%) and add new water. example: pump water high in cyanuric acid out of a swimming pool and the add fresh water to the pool.
No, pool shock is normally a really strong chlorine and stabilizer is like sunscreen for the chlorine
no
You mix stabilizer powder and water
Yes, a stabilizer, such as cyanuric acid, can be dissolved in a bucket of water before being added to the pool. It’s important to mix it thoroughly to ensure it dissolves completely. After dissolving, you can pour the mixture evenly around the pool to avoid localized high concentrations. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the correct dosage based on your pool's volume.
To determine the amount of stabilizer (cyanuric acid) needed for a 3861-gallon pool, a common recommendation is to aim for a stabilizer level of around 30-50 ppm. To achieve this, you would generally need about 4-6 pounds of stabilizer for 3861 gallons. However, it's essential to check the current stabilizer level in the pool before adding more, as this will affect how much you need to add. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines for specific products.
Check if you have any stabilizer in your pool without stabilizes (cyanuric acid) the chlorine use is greatly increased.
Ad cyanuric acid/stabilizer, this is available from your pool shop
