How much Walmart 6% do I need to add to get a 2.0ppm rise? Is there a standard calculator located on the forum?
My pool is a AG 17,500 gallon.
Sorry, the Ph is less than 7.0, not greater than.
In 17,500 gallons of water, each 2.5 quarts of 6% chlorine should give you just over a 2 ppm chlorine rise. There are a couple of pool calculators you can use--one is www.thepoolcalculator.com, and the other one is Bleachcalc. I prefer Bleachcalc for ease of use, but I have it set on my desktop so I'll have to look around the forum for the link to it. When I find it I'll try to come back and post it here.
It is post #2 in the following thread.

Your most critical concern though, is that low pH! Get it above 7.0 ASAP before it damages your pool or equipment!
Thanks Watermom, my Ph is now just over 7.0. I've had good luck with aeration.
