Please help with chlorine calculation?

[Teggo65]

I have an 8ft pool that hold 2300 litres of water. I bought the chlorine granules but not quite sure how much to use and how often. Looked online for help but all the charts i've come across sem very complicated. Please can someone help?

NOTICE: Non-US dimensions and non-US chemicals!

You're not in the US . . . so we need to careful NOT to make any false assumptions.

You'll need to provide complete pool dimensions. If it's round, the diameter, plus the water depth. Also, you'll need to give us the EXACT chemical name of the chlorinating agent in your granules, as well as the active %.

Also, do you have a testkit? What kind and what test agents does it use?

The Pool Calculator will work in U.S., Metric or Imperial units. So you can set it to metric and calculate your pool water volume as well as dosages to increase the FC ppm by the desired amount. I'm not sure why you are quoting 8 feet (2.44 meters) for the pool since you are using metric for the volume claiming 2300 liters. That volume also does not make sense. Let's say that you meant 8 foot diameter for a round pool and let's assume a 4.5 foot (1.37 meters) depth. That would be 6400 liters (1700 gallons).

Chem_Geek, she's in the UK, where they mix and match metric and Imperial.

I'm not at all sure of the composition of chlorinating agents available there, and the PoolCalculator assumes US standard non-blended chlorinating chemicals.
