Raises total alkalinity to prevent pH swings and maintain water balance for a healthier pool.

- Add this product directly to the pool water with the circulation system running and brush any settled product from surfaces.
- Add 1.4 lbs per 10,000 gallons of water to increase total alkalinity by 10 ppm (1 lb = 1¾ cups).
- Wait 2 hours, then retest total alkalinity.
Never mix different products together in the same bottle or pail. Always follow label instructions for exact dosing.

Q: Why do I need to raise alkalinity?
A: Low alkalinity causes unstable pH levels, which can lead to equipment damage, skin irritation, and poor sanitizer performance.
Q: What’s the ideal total alkalinity for a pool?
A: Between 80–120 ppm. Always test before adding and adjust as needed.
Q: Can I use this in a saltwater pool?
A: Yes—this sodium bicarbonate formula works in all pool types.
Q: How long before I can swim?
A: Most pools are safe to swim in 15–30 minutes after full product dispersion.
Q: Does this also affect pH?
A: It primarily increases total alkalinity but can slightly raise pH as well.
Q: Is this product compatible with Baquacil?
A: Yes, this alkalinity increaser is safe for use with Baquacil and helps stabilize water chemistry.
