Search this site or the internet and find a program called bleachcalc262.exe. According to this program, in order to rasie the chlorine level in my pool by 1.0 ppm, it told me to add 1 gallon of bleach. My pool is apprximately 40K gallons. I added a gallon of 6% bleach and chlorine increased by 1 ppm. Bleachcalc works great! :)

You need to figure how many gallons your pool holds, and then post a current test level (using a drop-based kit, not strips) for CYA in order for us to help you with that question.
