Liquid Chlorine would be a very good addition to the water giving you a fast rise in your chlor. values with a slow drop off. Just what you need to offset algae bloom. This should be done at least once a week.

"Gunite" is a special concrete mix that is sprayed, with a specialized spray gun. Using Gunite requires, by definition, the use of the spray gun.
One would normally use a tile grout mixed with bonding liquid, this should not be a problem
Don'Bother with the liquid algae control it will just stain your pool, Use an apropriate amount of liquid chlorine, this will kill the algae at the same time shock your water.
gunite comes from a dry sand cement mix that has water added as it is sprayed to form the pool walls and floor.Shotcrete is concrete that is sand cement and gravel is delivered ready mixed and is sprayed to form the pool walls and floor.Shotcrete is stronger then Gunite however they both do the job just fine if done by an experienced professional
one pound of cal hypo, granule chlorine, will treat 10,000 gallons of pool water. So use 1/4 pound to shock, two or three times that if pool goes green. If pool has a vinyl liner use sodium hypochloride, liquid shock, instead of granules.
Olympic swimming pools use about 650000 gallons of water, so if you're trying to shock one using 10% liquid chlorine, you would need about 200 gallons of liquid shock - or if you're only adding choline as a primary sanitizer, not as a shock, you'd use about 65 gallons.
To use pool shock effectively for maintaining clean and clear water in your pool, follow these steps: Test the water: Use a pool water testing kit to check the chlorine and pH levels in your pool. Calculate the amount of shock needed: Refer to the instructions on the pool shock product for the correct dosage based on your pool size and current water conditions. Dilute the shock: Dissolve the pool shock granules in a bucket of water before adding it to the pool. This helps prevent staining or damage to the pool surface. Apply the shock: Pour the diluted shock solution around the perimeter of the pool while the filtration system is running. This ensures even distribution of the shock throughout the water. Wait and test: Allow the shock to circulate in the pool for several hours or as recommended on the product instructions. Test the water again to ensure the chlorine and pH levels are within the desired range. Repeat if necessary: If the water is still cloudy or algae persists, you may need to shock the pool again or consult a professional for further advice. By following these steps, you can effectively use pool shock to maintain clean and clear water in your pool.
Stop adding salt to the pool and use tablets and shock when needed.
better to get a bag of shock rather then guess and do it yourself local pool supply should have it
Yes, some pool shocks are sold with algecide.
The easiest way is to use 4 lb of non-chlorine shock. Hatawa
Pool shock is calcium hypochlorite. Liquid bleach is sodium hypochlorite. Liquid pool shock is sodium hypochlorite. Yes, they are all basically the exact same things, the only difference is which metal they are bonded with for delivery and stability. Calcium hypochlorite is the granulated form of pool chlorine. It is useful if you have an in ground plaster/concrete/gunite/tile pool as it supplies calcium to the water to help maintain hardness. Sodium hypochlorite is liquid form. This is useful to use if you have a vinyl lined pool since you don't need to maintain elevated calcium hardness in these types of pools. Household bleach (non scented) is 6% sodium hypochlorite by solution. Liquid pool chlorine is 10%-12% sodium hypochlorite by solution. Granulated chlorine is 65% calcium hypochlorite. 10oz of granulated chlorine = 1/2 gallon of liquid pool chlorine = 1 gallon of household bleach. These measurements will raise the chlorine level by 5ppm in 10,000 gallons of water.
