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
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.
I always thought you just had to shout BOO!!
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.
@@Inyopools ahh yes, the good old days of Scooby Snacks in front of the gogglebox :)
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.
Great tip. Thank you!
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 😊
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
Besides doing this in the evening, how long do you need to leave your pump on after shocking the pool?
For mine, 12 hours
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.
@@Inyopools Thank you
I wonder why you would need to shock a pool as neat as that one
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.

why not use the skimmer!!
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.
@@Inyopools thx ...
No problem! Have a great weekend.
And... It would immediately get sucked into the filter... You want it in the pool.
