I am pretty sure you should brush the bottom before you put in the chlorine, but you should check with another source because I am not positive.
There is chlorine shock and non chlorine shock. Fo chlorine shock, which is the normal shock, it is the same a s Chlorine but unstabilized, so it will not last in the pool very long.
No, pool shock is normally a really strong chlorine and stabilizer is like sunscreen for the chlorine
Shock the pool with chlorine (your Pool shop will tell you how much to add). Run the filter constantly, cleaning as necessary, for a couple of days. Brush pool walls as well. Then install a salt water system and you won't get that algae coming back.
It may kill the algae but the algae needs to be filtered or the pool will remain green and cloudy You need to dissolve the chlorine and pour around the pool then brush the pool in order to not damage your plaster. This will help get the chlorine throughout the pool.
If it happens after you vacuum your filter is not retaining the dirt.If it happens after you brush you are stirring up the dirt. If it happens after you put chlorine, check your water balance at your local store and make sure you are not using calcium hypochlorite as your chlorine shock.
Just shock it to break point and your at free chlorine.
the same as before. whoever told you that you didnt have to shock and use algaecide lied. the same as before. whoever told you that you didnt have to shock and use algaecide lied.
After non-chlorine shock there is not any waiting time for swimming. Though it is still best to add it in at night, you could add anytime and swim right away.
No liquid shock is more concentrated
It,s easy. Just Shock your pool with a chlorine shock and then make sure the chlorine level is where you need it to be. It, more involved if you go from Chlorine to Bacqucil. but why would you want to Bacqucil is so much nicer and easier.
The easiest way is to use 4 lb of non-chlorine shock. Hatawa
Keep residual chlorine down to 1 or 2. Use a non-chlorine (oxygen based) shock.
