Using the Pool Calc to determine x gal

[rdkll]

I put bleach in the other day to bring clourine to 15ppm, an hour later it 3as 13.5 ppm, and it stayed there for 3 retests(taking samples from same spot, thanks Duraleigh)

I dont remeber what I was bringing it to 15 ppm from.

Before I get started again, I dont think I shocked long enough (got sloppy on my overnight drop) I am ready to do the hourly battle, but would be cool to have an exact formula for my pool.

As always, Thanks In Advance

Fortunately, shocking isn't rocket science but it pays to do it right the first time!

May I suggest that you...

• a.) use a good FAS-DPD test (see test kits described here.)
  b.) read Shock Your Pool
  c.) determine your 'exact formula' from the CYA/Chlorine chart and The Pool Calculator, then go for it!
