How much shock and algieside you put in 1700 gallon pool?
For a 1,700-gallon pool, you typically use about 1 pound of chlorine shock per 10,000 gallons of water, so you would need approximately 0.17 pounds (or about 2.7 ounces) of shock. For algaecide, the recommended dosage can vary by product, but a common guideline is about 1 ounce per 5,000 gallons, meaning you would use around 0.34 ounces for your pool. Always check the product label for specific instructions and adjust based on your pool's current chemical levels.
If the shock says 1lb per 12000 gallon pool how many tablespoons for a 300 gallon spa?

How much shock does it take to winterize 18000 gallon pool?
To winterize an 18,000-gallon pool, you'll typically need to add about 1 to 3 pounds of shock (calcium hypochlorite or chlorine shock) per 10,000 gallons of water. This means you would use around 2 to 6 pounds of shock for your pool. It's essential to ensure the chlorine level is adequately raised before closing the pool to prevent algae growth over the winter months. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and consider testing the water chemistry for optimal results.

How much dry shock to put in a 650 gallon pool?
To determine the amount of dry shock (calcium hypochlorite) to add to a 650-gallon pool, a general guideline is to use 1 pound of shock for every 10,000 gallons of water for a standard chlorination. Therefore, for a 650-gallon pool, you would typically use about 0.065 pounds (or approximately 1 ounce) to achieve a standard chlorine level. However, if you're aiming to raise the chlorine level significantly or are treating for algae, you may need to adjust this amount accordingly. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and test the water afterward to ensure proper chlorine levels.
How much shock in a 4.000 pool?
I would not shock the pool unless you have problems like the water is getting cloudy or worse if it starts to turn green. Realistically, if nobody is urinating in the pool or unless you have extremely large bather loads shocking is not required. Before shocking make sure to test the pH and adjust it to 7.2-7.4. Then make sure there is adequate chlorine in the pool (1 -3PPM). IF you still require shock, buy a non-chlorine shock (potassium monopersulfate). For a 4,000 gallon pool, follow the directions on the product. It usually comes in a one pound packet and about a half of that bag should do it.
Can use of powder pool shock damage pool liners?
It's best to pour the bag of shock into an empty gallon jug, say from algecide or water and then fill it with water till it dissolves then pour in thru skimmer. If the powder just sits on the pool liner bottom, it will eat at the vinyl.

How much shock do you use for a 5000 gal with a chlorine lock?
For a 5,000-gallon pool experiencing a chlorine lock, you typically need to add about 1 pound of shock (calcium hypochlorite or sodium dichlor) for every 10,000 gallons of water. Therefore, for a 5,000-gallon pool, you would use approximately 0.5 pounds of shock. It's essential to check the chlorine levels with a test kit before and after shocking to ensure proper balance and effectiveness. Additionally, consider addressing any underlying issues contributing to the chlorine lock.
How many cups of pool shock in one pound?
It depends on the type and concentration of the pool shock. In general, 1 pound of pool shock can treat about 10,000 to 15,000 gallons of water in a swimming pool. You should always refer to the specific product label for instructions on how much to use.
