Hello. I purchased a “stabilizer and conditioner” product at my local pool store (chain of stores here in Quebec Canada). Packaging recommended using 300g per 10,000 liters. My vinyl pool with a SWG is about 65,000 liters so I started off with 1.5KG (30 mins prior to posting this) and will then test in a week (current CYA is zero). Unlike posts and videos I’ve seen about either 1) pouring it into the skimmer or 2) putting it in a sock to slowly dissolve, the packaging recommended sprinkling it along the edges. After sprinkling it I see some accumulation and have read in posts after a few days it’ll be completely gone. The type of stabilizer is not mentioned on the packaging.
I am now wondering if it’s some “different” type of stabilizer and whether I should be worried in any way because instructions don’t match what I’ve seen in this forum. I brushed it around, most seems invisible but still see accumulation. I’ve read cyanuric acid is very weak and won’t damage a vinyl liner but still worried as mine is on its 13th year. The psi of the pool has not budged.
Any guidance or background info is appreciated.
