How long after putting acid in the pool can you put in chlorine?
Any time you like.
Can you add chlorine and muriatic acid at the same time?
NO!!! Never add them at the same time, together they make a toxic gas A general rule when adding chemicals to pools is to wait at least an hour before adding any other chemical to the pool. Remember Muriatic acid is very dangerous so be careful bad for lungs, burn skin, blind eyes.
Green in an above ground pool?
Algae, time for chlorine. Pool supply places have a test kit (ph) & can tell you how to use & what to add-chlorine or acid.
What happens when hydrofluoric acid is left in glass bottle for long time?
The hydrofluoric acid will eat through the glass.
If a base is toxic is it an acid?
No, Because a substance that is a base cannot be an acid at the same time
Is pool shock the same as chlorine?
Pool shock typically contains a higher concentration of chlorine compared to regular pool chlorine products. Pool shock is used to quickly raise the chlorine levels in the water to kill bacteria and algae, while regular pool chlorine is used for maintenance and to keep the chlorine levels stable over time.
Can you increase alkalinity and pH at the same time?
You shouldn't be using "household bleach" at all. Use 12.5% chlorine found only in pool stores. The chlorine found in discount stores is probably around 10 % if that. If that chlorine was left on the loading dock for an hour it most likely has lost strength to maybe 8%. Once the chlorine has been moved inside the store the chlorine strength continues to loose strength - it only has a shelf life of 2 weeks. To answer your question, chlorine is used to sanitize. Muriatic acid and soda ash are used to adjust the pH (acid lowers-soda raises). Chlorine can raise the pH but in such insignificant amounts that you can not detect them on a normal test kits. Do your own test. Leave a partial bottle of chlorine - any strength - outside for a few weeks and you will end up with what looks like water. In extreme cases you will end up with just salt crystals inside the bottle even with the cap on solidly.
What could cause chlorine levels to rise in a pool?
Don't do anything. Chlorine goes away on its own, which is why you must monitor it and keep it at the correct level. If you have too much, wait a few days. If it is hotter than normal out, the chlorine will go away faster than normal.
How long after adding chlorine powder to your pool is it safe to swim?
1 to 2 hrs. New answer: By pool powder - do you mean dry chlorine? Minimum time may be about 20 minutes with a good circulation system. That too, depends on the quantity of the "pool powder".
What happens if everyone dies at the same time?
If everyone were to die at the same time, your will would be to no avail.
Does sperm die as soon as its in chlorine?
Yes, sperm doesn't last long even during intercourse. So in Chlorine it dies instantly.
How do you lower your chlorine in a salt water pool?
ADD MURATIC ACID PER DIRECTIONS. ALSO ADJUSTS THE PH New ans: There are no directions on a bottle of muratic acid. Muriatic acid will have little affect on the overall pH readings or can hardly be detected on most test kits. Possible too, lowering the pH may actually prolong the life of the chlorine. Chlorine levels will automatically come down naturally if left alone. And why in the world would you ever want to lower the chlorine levels if you have good sanitation????
