  • Great Product at a reasonable price
Size: 24-Pack
This product is an excellent choice for pool maintenance. It's much better than shock with stabilizer, in my opinion. Here's why: - Using shock with stabilizer in it for extended periods will cause your cyanuric acid levels to rise above limits and leave your chlorine ineffective (useless, if high enough). - Calcium Hypochlorite is a better product than stabilized chlorine, and it's normally much more expensive than stabilized chlorine. It's only cheaper now because resellers bought out the stabilized shock and are now reselling it to you at a significant profit) - To use Calcium Hypochlorite, just stabilize your pool with cyanuric acid (available on Amazon). Once you reach the desired PPM (parts per million), you won't have to add any more. It does not evaporate (which, btw, is the problem with stabilized shock ... you keep putting in more cyanuric acid every time you shock). - Important: get your PH up to 7.4 (7.2 - 7.6), and keep it there, and your algae problems will diminish significantly. - Also, treat your pool with algaecide to keep algae from growing. Shock will kill algae, but its purpose is to kill harmful bacteria. Algae is just annoying ... show more

  • Shock & Awe: The Terminator of Pool Shocks
Size: 24-Pack
I travel frequently, sometimes for extended periods of time, which makes pool maintenance without hiring a service a real pain. This is particularly troublesome with an in-ground pool in Florida in Summer that has no shade. I waited to post a review until after I'd ordered 2 separate batches to test for quality control, and quite simply: this is the BEST shock I've ever used. I've come back from trips to solid green slime pits with heavy stripes of the dreaded black spot algae, and 2-3bags of this stuff + a couple of chlorine tablets with the filter running will turn my pool back to blue overnight. Like other reviewers, I have noticed that my water is a little cloudy the next 24-32hrs--- but in my case, I chalk that up to so much dead organic material & algae that needs to be filtered out. This stuff kills ALL the nasty stuff--- but until it's vacuumed or filtered out, it's still in the water. It works when nothing else does, and does a better & faster job. It's also priced very competitively. If you have a problem pool, or a problem with regular maintenance, this stuff is AMAZING. It terminates even the most durable, hardened, and persistent algae with extreme prejudice, you just have to give your vacuum or filter a chance to clear the battlefield of all the millions of algae corpses once it's finished annihilating them, and then declare unconditional victory. If you're just looking for regular pool maintenance, this may be a little strong for your needs. I will say that when I'm around to take care of it, one bag of this every 2-3 weeks, plus a couple of chlorine tablets does the trick (without cloudiness). Where it really shines though is in rehabilitating seemingly terminally green monsters back into beautiful blue pools. ... show more

I buy this product when the price it right and use it once or twice a week to help keep my pool looking good. I am able to use less tablets and keep my CYA down.

  • Wonderful product!
Size: 24-Pack
I use this every 10 days in my salt pool and it does an excellent job. I do not pre-mix. I dump in the deep end, then get my brush. Sometime I drop the robot in. By the time it has cleaned the pool, all of the product is thoroughly dissolved!

  • Works great
Size: 24-Pack
I've been using this product for 3 years now and it works great. I don't understand why there are complaints since two packages shock my ~22,000 gallon pool perfectly every 2 weeks. I live in Oklahoma where the summer temps get to 105-110F and this has no trouble shocking my pool. You should shock after the sun goes down with dusk light (same adding chlorine) and ensure you broadcast the product into a water jet stream to ensure total dispersion and it shouldn't touch the bottom of the pool. My pool is 3.5ft to 6ft in the deep end. I broadcast a lighter amount in the shallow end. If you have imbalanced water that might be part of some issues. Or maybe some aren't broadcasting properly. But what is the likely culprit is the use of those 3" chlorinating tablets with added stabilizer (cyanuric acid). If you're using this then over the summer your cyanuric acid level will rise too high and prevent the chlorine from doing it's job. When I couldn't find that Sam's Club chlorine tablets during COVID-19 I asked my pool supply store about using Clorox bleach. They told me I should never use it but I had no choice and I've never looked back. It works perfectly!! For over two years now. I buy the 3gl pack from Sam's club and add 1/4 bottle M, W & F. I then add Sam's Club algaecide every other Saturday. Then I shock every other Sunday but sometimes I forget. I've never had a more maintenance free pool in over 16 years!! Oh, I also use cheap Amazon hairnets (100 for ~$8) as a pre-filter in my skimmer basket. I actually enjoy having a pool now. My big complaint is that the cost of this shock has doubled over the last 3 summers. ... show more
