Muriatic acid distribution methods

[salinda]

I put mine in a single stream in front of the deep end return with the pump on. I add acid on a regular basis and I watch the plume to make sure it is hitting the return jet and mixing in. For me, that is a little to the side of the jet....

Here is the thread that talks about the 'slug method' and here is a link to the paper that debunks it!

I pour it in front of the deep end return with the pump running.

If this thing really works and does not damage anything where the Acid enters the pool, then I'm sold. Talk about a maintenence free pool!! Just about the only thing I have to to most of the summer is add acid to keep ph in check

Controllers with electrodes and automatic dosing wiith peristaltic pumps has been used on cmmercial pools for years. In fact, the Pool Pilot Total Control system includes such equipment. The main disadvantage is the price. If you have the extra $1500 lying around to install it and have the money for maintenance to keep it running properly then go for it.
