    Default Cal Hypo question

    I need to shock my pool, and I've never done it before. I am confused on how much cal hypo to use. The directions say use 2 ounces per 1000 gallons of pool water. I estimate I have 22,000. There is a scoop inside the container, but it is not labeled as to how much the scoop contains. It looks like it is about the size of a cup of water, so can I assume it probably holds 8 ounces of granules? So if I need 44 ounces, that would be approx. 5 1/2 scoops, right?

    Also: When I add it to the skimmer, I need to have the chlorine sticks out of the chlorinator, right?
