- Oxidizing Shock & Swim – If there are high levels of organic waste in the pool the available chlorine is used up ‘sanitizing’ that and gives bacteria and algae the ability to grow. This non-chlorine shock oxidizes the organic waste which helps clarify the pool water and allows the free chlorine to work on controlling bacteria and algae. The advantage to this shock is you only have to wait 15 minutes to swim.
- Fast Acting Pool Shock 73 – This shock will increase your free chlorine level without increasing cyanuric acid (stabilizer). However, you need to dissolve one pound in five gallons of water before you add it to the pool. Use extra care when using Fast Acting Pool Shock 73 on pool surfaces that may be subject to bleaching, especially vinyl pools.
- Multi-Purpose Shock – This shock is, well, multipurpose. It can be used to shock your pool and as regular chlorine treatment. There is no need to dissolve before adding it to the pool. Multi-Purpose Shock is stabilized and has a near neutral pH. It dissolves rapidly, will not bleach or stain vinyl liners and is safer for fiberglass or painted surfaces.
