Hi, I am a new pool owner and am just about done shocking my pool. According to the pool calculator, I need to add approximately 85 lbs of calcium chloride. Looking online for bulk sales, I see that I can find 50lb bags of Dowflakes (83-87%) for about $10 each. Are these suitable sources? I can also find 20 lb bags of "high purity" calcium chloride for about $25 each. Additionally there are bags of snow melt pellets for a variety of prices.
Are any of these suitable for use in a pool? If not, what should I be looking for?
Thanks for your help.
