Directions for Adding Chlorine Stabilizer to Your Swimming Pool:

3A. Apply Directly To Pool: Product may not dissolve instantly when applied to the pool. Brush or vacuum undissolved particles until dissolved or removed with a vacuum.

When applying this product to the skimmer, remove the basket and any other materials from the skimmer. Add 1/2 the total recommended dosage every 8 hours. As product is being introduced to the skimmer, the pump may run harder and filter pressure may temporarily increase.

5. Allow product to circulate for 3 to 5 days before testing cyanic acid levels.
Do not dissolve this product prior to use. Never mix different products together in the same bottle or pail. Always apply product to water with the circulation system operating.
