Now that the swim season is upon us it’s time to make sure your pool water chemistry is balanced and swim safe. One of the most important factors in helping to maintain a proper chlorine level is to be sure that your pool water is stabilized. Stabilizer is actually a granular product who chemical name is cyanuric acid. By adding the proper amount of cyanuric acid/stabilizer to your pool it works to keep chlorine active and available in your pool water.  It’s like putting “sunglasses” over your pool water which filters out the sun’s ultraviolet rays which causes chlorine to dissolve more quickly from your pool water.  Almost any pool supply store that tests your pool water chemistry will include the test for stabilizer.  The proper level of stabilizer in your pool should be between 40 ppm-60 ppm.  Your pool supply store personnel should be able to help you figure out how much cyanuric acid you need to add to your pool water to obtain the proper level.  If not, you can ALWAYS give us a call at Positive Pool Wholesale Supply (813) 677-4232, and we will he happy to guide you in setting the proper stabilizer level for your pool. Now, go take a swim and enjoy your pool!
