    Default Re: Frustrated Baquacil Customer

    Can I go ahead and switch over to bleach even though I started with the powder?? The power I have doe not have stabilizer, but it is Calcium Hydrochorate. I'm going to do a quick hunt for the bleach conversion info.

    Just returned from Walmart with the better testing set and dinner. Checked Chlorine, it had already dropped down to 6ppm and I had to add 32oz, is that normal?

    Also, should I go ahead and correct my PH or wait until after the process if over?

    Not to worry, I won't be accepting anything a pool store says from here on out at face value, I'm learning to do this stuff myself and only relying on them once a month and expecting the numbers from them not an "it looks good answer". I think I've learned my lesson.

    I feel so much better now, at least if I mess up it's my own darn fault.

    I just found the bleach calculator and I realize this is probably a stupid question and I apologize in advance, for the pool size it has an L, does that mean it should be in liters? For examle, my pool is 12,500 gallon which equates to approx 47,400 liter, is that the amount I put in??
