Preguntas frecuentes sobre Pool chemicals
Treatment depends on the type of pool and the disinfection system, but it is normally necessary to test the water, control the pH, and maintain an adequate disinfectant level.
Depending on the water conditions, specific products such as algaecides, clarifiers, flocculants, or alkalinity adjusters may also be used.
It is not necessary to use all chemicals permanently. The important thing is to test the water and apply only the appropriate treatment.
What is the difference between shock chlorine and maintenance chlorine?
Shock chlorine is used for intensive treatments when water conditions require them, while maintenance products are intended to regularly maintain the disinfectant level.
The dosage and application method depend on the product's concentration and formulation.
Do not use a generic amount of chlorine: always follow the label instructions and check the water parameters afterward.
How much chlorine should I add to the pool?
There is no universal dosage.
The amount depends on the water volume, product concentration, current disinfectant level, temperature, number of swimmers, and water condition, among other factors.
First calculate the pool volume, test the water, and use the dosage indicated for the specific product.
Are chlorine tablets or granular chlorine better?
They serve different functions depending on their formulation.
Chlorine tablets are generally used for gradual dosing, while certain granular products are formulated for faster or more specific treatments.
The choice should be based on the treatment required and the manufacturer's instructions, not solely on the format or price.
Where should chlorine tablets be placed?
It depends on the product and the intended dosing system.
Systems specifically designed for dosing may be used, provided they are compatible with the product and the installation.
Do not place a tablet directly on the pool lining unless the manufacturer expressly authorizes it, as a high concentration of product in one spot may damage certain materials.
What is multifunction chlorine?
Products called multifunction combine several functions in a single formulation, although their composition may vary between manufacturers.
For example, a product may provide disinfection and other complementary functions, but you should not assume that all multifunction tablets contain exactly the same components.
Always check the label for its composition, dosage, and conditions of use.
Do I need to use algaecide if I already use chlorine?
Not necessarily.
Pool algaecide may be used as a preventive or corrective treatment depending on the product and water conditions, but it should not be considered a mandatory complement to chlorine in all pools.
A correct disinfectant level, suitable pH, filtration, and cleaning are essential for controlling algae growth.
What should I do if the pool water turns green?
Green water may be related to the presence of algae, but before adding products, it is advisable to test the water and check the filtration system.
Check the pH and disinfectant, and follow the procedure corresponding to the treatment you use.
The solution may require parameter correction, disinfectant treatment, brushing, and filtration, depending on the cause and the condition of the water.
How do I know whether I need to raise or lower the pH?
The correct way to find out is to measure the water's pH using a suitable testing system.
It is not advisable to decide solely based on symptoms such as eye irritation, cloudy water, or scale deposits, as they may have different causes.
In pools treated with chlorine, a pH of approximately between 7,2 y 7,6, although the relevant instructions for the treatment used must be followed.
What is the difference between pH Minus and pH Plus?
A pH reducer or pH Minus is used when the measurement indicates that the pH is above the desired range.
A pH increaser or pH Plus performs the opposite function when the value is too low.
The required amount depends on the water volume, initial value, and product concentration, so its dosing table must be followed.
How is liquid pH reducer used?
It depends on the formulation and dosing system.
Some products are intended for automatic regulation systems, while others may have different usage procedures.
We do not recommend applying, mixing, or diluting a pH adjuster according to a generic rule. Always consult the label, technical data sheet, and safety instructions for the specific product.
Should I correct the pH before adding chlorine?
pH affects how the water treatment works, so it is important to check it and keep it within the recommended range for the system being used.
If the parameters are out of range, follow the correction procedure indicated for the corresponding products.
Do not mix different chemicals with one another or combine treatments without following their instructions.
Can I mix chlorine, algaecide, and pH reducer?
Pool chemicals must not be mixed directly with one another unless the manufacturer expressly specifies a compatible procedure.
Each product must be dosed according to its label, observing the corresponding quantities, application method, and precautions.
Mixing concentrated products can cause dangerous reactions.
What is the difference between flocculant and algaecide?
They have different functions.
The algaecide is formulated to act against algae according to the product’s characteristics, while the flocculant is used to promote the aggregation of certain small particles and facilitate their removal through the filtration system or the specified procedure.
Before using a flocculant, check its compatibility with the type of filter installed.
Can I use flocculant with a cartridge filter?
It should not be assumed.
Certain flocculation treatments may not be suitable for some cartridge filters or may require specific procedures.
Always check the instructions for the chemical product and the filter manufacturer before using it.
What is a pool chemical maintenance kit?
A kit may group several products needed for specific maintenance tasks, but its contents vary depending on the manufacturer and product reference.
It may include disinfection, regulation, or other treatment products, as well as items for testing the water.
Before buying, check exactly what is included and make sure the products are suitable for your pool and treatment system.
Do pool chemicals expire?
The date, usage period, and storage conditions indicated on the container must be observed.
Products must be kept in their original containers, properly sealed, and in accordance with the manufacturer’s safety and storage instructions.
Do not transfer products into unlabeled containers or store incompatible products together.
Can I use any chemical product in a pool with a liner?
Not necessarily.
Some liners may be affected by high concentrations or direct contact with certain products.
If you have a pool with a liner, follow the product and pool manufacturer’s instructions, paying particular attention to the dosing method.
Are the chemicals the same for a salt-chlorinated pool?
A pool with salt chlorination still requires water monitoring and maintenance.
Although the system generates disinfectant from salt, parameters such as pH must be monitored, and the instructions for the equipment and treatment used must be followed.
Any additional products that may be needed will depend on the analysis results and the condition of the water.
