Calcium Chloride

Description: Calcium chloride is essential to your swimming pool because it contributes greatly to the structural health of the pool itself. Adding calcium chloride to your pool will increase the overall calcium hardness levels in your pool. Directions: Use 2 oz. of calcium chloride for every 1,000 gallons of water to raise the ppm by 10. If your pool holds 10,000 gallons of water; to raise the ppm by 20, you must add 40 oz. of calcium chloride to the water. Before adding to your pool dissolve the appropriate amount of calcium chloride into a water bucket. This is very important because if you pour the solution straight into a pool you run the risk of scale forming on the surface of the pool.
