never add water into the stuff, always add stuff into the water - that rule is for all strong chems!!! elementary school chemistry (strong reactions with fumes can occur if you dont follow that rule)
Yelling "Boo" or being an old groundskeeper dressed up as a ghost or monster. If I remember my Saturday morning cartoons correctly, that usually gave everyone a shock/fright.
I wish there were videos AND packaged chemicals geared to smaller (i.e., 1100 gallon) pools like what I have. Trying to "calculate" the amount needed can be trickly.
Absolutely! Getchorself a half of bucket of water pour the granular into the bucket stir thoroughly until the little pebbles are completely dissolved and then toss it in the pool 🤟You're welcome 😊
I use hot tap water to dissolve the granules. Just be sure to keep your face way away from the bucket when using hot or warm water. Or wear a respirator.
When shocking, the filter should be on the normal filter setting. You'd only need to run the filter on Recirculate for extended periods of time for water treatments that should bypass the filter, like flocculants.
@@3ngi_n33rI'd check the bottle instructions. If the chemical should not go through the filter media, it should be mentioned in the directions. Generally, strong coagulants like flocculants should never touch your filter media, whereas mild coagulants like clarifiers are safe for the filter.
I'm in the process of making a video of how long to run pump. It's going to be loaded jam-pack supercharged with information the likes no one has ever heard of 😋
Can i shock a pool just like shown if i have an inline chlorinator that still has tabs in it or should i wait until the chlorinator is totally empty? Also if the chlorinator is completely empty and i shock the pool (exactly as shown) when can i put some chlorine tabs back in the chlorinator??
Yes, you can shock the pool with this method while there's still tablets in the chlorinator. The shock would be so diluted by the time it gets cycled through the chlorinator again, there shouldn't be an issue.
I find it funny that Leslies video has them pouring it directly in and this video you are pouring it in water first. I'm wondering if one is better than the other.
We prefer to dissolve it first. The majority of the granules tend to rest on the floor when you pour the bag directly into the pool. If you don't brush them up, it could discolor the pool surface or liner.
We don't recommend pouring shock into the skimmer. The main reason is that shock like cal-hypo is explosive. Some of it could get through the system an into a tablet feeder. The mixing of cal-hypo and dichlor could cause a nasty reaction. We also don't like the idea of adding highly concentrated directly into the plumbing and equipment.

30 videos, your the only one that explains. Thanks.
Glad to help!
The shock I got said do not mix with water. Do you do this even if the bag says not to? Thank you

Did you ever get the answer? I just got a pool and have the same question lol
I always thought you just had to shout BOO!!

Do you dissolve all your granular products? Thank you
Absolutely! Getchorself a half of bucket of water pour the granular into the bucket stir thoroughly until the little pebbles are completely dissolved and then toss it in the pool 🤟You're welcome 😊

Great tip. Thank you!
What position should filter valve be in? Filter or recirculate when shocking.
When shocking, the filter should be on the normal filter setting. You'd only need to run the filter on Recirculate for extended periods of time for water treatments that should bypass the filter, like flocculants.
@@Inyopoolswould you use recirculating mode with clarifier as well?

Besides doing this in the evening, how long do you need to leave your pump on after shocking the pool?
For mine, 12 hours

@@Inyopools Thank you
My hth pool shock says not to dissolve first. Can i still do it the way you did?
Just had some hth blow up while mixing with water so wouldn’t not recommend mixing if lol
I wonder why you would need to shock a pool as neat as that one
Should do it every week??
last step; get into the pool and release couple of strong short farts, it will add to the water bouquet and kill chlorine odor + aeration

why not use the skimmer!!

@@Inyopools thx ...
No problem! Have a great weekend.
And... It would immediately get sucked into the filter... You want it in the pool.
