Why do I need to increase calcium hardness?

What’s the recommended calcium range?

Is it safe for saltwater pools?
Yes, this calcium hardness increaser is compatible with saltwater, chlorine, and bromine pool systems when used according to instructions.
How fast does it dissolve?
This product is formulated to dissolve quickly when added to the pool with the pump running. Brushing the area after application can help ensure even distribution.
Can I swim right after using it?
Allow sufficient time for the product to fully dissolve and circulate before swimming. Testing the water after circulation is recommended to confirm balanced conditions.
Is this product compatible with Baquacil?
