Natural Chemistry Instant Pool Water Conditioner 1 Gallon Stabilizer, 17401NCM

Natural Chemistry Instant Pool Water Conditioner is a liquid stabilizer, sold here in the 1 gallon size, used to protect chlorine from being burned off by sunlight. It starts working the instant it is added rather than waiting to dissolve.

Why the liquid form matters

Regular granular cyanuric acid has a pH of 2.8 and takes four to seven days to fully dissolve. During that time it can sit in the skimmer, on the floor or in the filter, and depending on how it was added it can damage the pool surface or the circulation system. This product is a salt rather than an acid, with a pH that is friendly to a pool, so it does neither.

Dosing

One gallon raises the conditioner level in 10,000 gallons of water by 32 ppm. For a fresh water start with no stabilizer present, divide the pool volume by 10,000 to get the gallons required. For a top up, test the level first, then add 4 oz per 10,000 gallons for each 1 ppm you need. Aim for at least 30 ppm, the recommended minimum for holding chlorine against sunlight.

How to add it

Shake the container well. With the pump running, pour it slowly into the skimmer, or walk the perimeter and pour it directly into the water, brushing afterward to speed absorption. Rinse the empty container with pool water and pour that in too.
