How to Add Chemicals to an Above-Ground Swimming Pool
Keeping an above-ground pool in top swimming condition means more than just running the pool filter. Several chemicals must be added to keep the water clear and clean. There’s chlorine to kill the bacteria, cyuranic acid that helps to retain the chlorine in the pool, muriatic acid that modifies the pool’s pH level and algaecide to prevent the growth of algae. Administering each of these chemicals properly can be the difference between maintaining a clean pool and creating a toxic nightmare.
