ProTeam Power 73 is a powerful chlorinating concentrate. that helps control odor, bacteria, and algae. This shock is compatible with all pool types except biguanide. This shock contains no stabilizer and does not require pre-dissolving.
Features
- 73% Calcium Hypochlorite
- Un-stabilized chlorine granules; Cyanuric Acid free
- No pre-dissolving required*
Benefits
- Scours pool of contaminant buildups; use regularly to maintain water quality.
- Compatible with all sanitizing chlorine and bromine systems
Applications
- Clean filter as needed and adjust water balance
- Apply the product when the pool is not in use and the pump is running. Ideal application is after dusk.
- Broadcast product over the entire deep end of the water. Brush or vacuum any undissolved material off surfaces. Cold water and other conditions may affect chlorine's solubility. Ensure that any material that may have settled to the pool bottom, especially on bleachable surfaces, is swept into solution or vacuumed.
- For normal use, add 1 pound per 15,000 gallons of water with the pump running.
- Use weekly or after heavy swimming, heavy rain, or wind.
- Reentry to the pool is permitted once chlorine levels are below 4 ppm.
Directions
Opening Pool/Initial Chlorination:
Begin operation of your recirculation equipment. Balance the water by making certain the pool water parameters for pH, total alkalinity, and water hardness are in their proper ranges. Follow "Shock Treatment/Superchlorination" application directions to superchlorinate the pool. Allow 30 minutes for the product to disperse, then determine the free chlorine residual using a pool test kit. If no residual is found, superchlorinate again. Repeat treatment, as needed, until the chlorine residual is 1.0 ppm. If a stabilizer is used, check and adjust the stabilizer to the proper level. Do not enter the water until the free chlorine residual is 4.0 ppm or less. Wait at least 4 hours, preferably overnight; then vacuum the pool bottom. Begin routine chlorination.
Routine Chlorination:
Actual dosages of this product required to maintain the desired free chlorine residual will vary with sunlight, water temperatures, bathing load, stabilizer concentration, water balance, and other factors. Use a test kit frequently to determine and maintain the proper free chlorine residual. Do not enter the pool until the free chlorine residual has dropped to 4.0 ppm or less as measured using your test kit.
Add 3-4 ounces of this product (1 to 2 ounces in stabilized pools) per 5,000 gallons of water daily, or as needed, to maintain the desired free chlorine residual, whether the pool is in use or not. For small changes in free chlorine residual once it is detected, adding 1 ounce of this product to 5,000 gallons of water will raise the free chlorine residual approximately 1.0 ppm.
Shock Treatment / Superchlorination:
Adjust the pH to 7.2-7.4 prior to shocking or superchlorination. Add this product at night or when the pool is not in use. To prevent pool water problems, shock at least once per week during periods of heavy use or when water temperatures are above 80 degrees, and once every two weeks in residential pools receiving normal usage. Maintain the operation of the pump and filter. Do not enter the pool until the free chlorine residual has dropped to 4.0 ppm or less as measured using a suitable test kit. Between treatments of this product, continue to maintain the proper water balance and sanitizer level in your pool as recommended on the label of your normal pool sanitizer.
Add 5 ounces of this product to every 5,000 gallons of water to yield 5-10 ppm available chlorine.
