Looking to start up my pool with tri or Cal until I can find bleach at the stores. Also trying to do a cost comparison.
In the swim has
50 pounds of Calcium Hypochlorite 68% so that will give me 34 pounds chlorine and 16 pounds of Calcium. $129
50 pounds of trichlor is $100. 54.2% by weight of cyanuric acid so that will give me 27.1 pounds of cyanuric acid and 22.9 pounds of Chlorine.
My questions are
1. are my calculations correct?
2. Is the chlorine in tri-chlor and Cal-Hypo exactly the same (same strength?
3. How much will cal-hypo raise my calcium (16 pounds) if I use it all 20,000 pool?
4 How much will the tri-Chlor (27 pounds) raise my cya if I use it all, 20000 pool?
5 What is the bleach equivalent to 34 pounds of cal-hypo chlorine?
