User questions & answers

Question:	Why would these cleaning tablets be recommended for a 14x36 pool that only holds 2,400 gallons
Answer:	We are the manufacturer of HTH Super 3" Chlorinating Tablets and these are for pools of 10,000 gallons or more. For a 2,400 gallon pool we would recommend our HTH 1" Chlorinating Tablets. If you have any questions please contact us at 866-484-7665.
Question:	Is this gonna blow up if I take it out of the pool, ppm is off the scale >10 and manufacturer is not answering their phone
Answer:	No, the tablets do not 'blow up' when removed from water. If you're getting a high ppm reading you may be using too many tablets for your pool's size. Our pool is approximately 28,000 gallons, and we use two tablets in a floating container/distributor. We augment the tablets with once-a-week shock. If we have to add water (we live in the Florida Keys), or get a lot of rain we'll adjust the chemicals accordingly. Also, be sure you're running your pump and filter at least 8 hours a day for dispersal of chemicals.
Question:	We just bought a 15 ft, 33 inch fast set pool. What would be the best to use
Answer:	We are the manufacturer of HTH Super 3" Chlorinating Tablets and one of these tablets is for 10,000 gallons of water. For your size pool we recommend our HTH 1" Chlorinating Tablets. If you have any more questions please call us at 866-484-7665.
Question:	My chlorine is really low, the ph and alkaline are high. What do I add
Answer:	We are the manufacturer of HTH Super 3" chlorinating tablets. If your alkalinity and pH are too high you will need to adjust those by using HTH pH Down or Decreaser. For more information please call us at 866-484-7665 and we will be happy to help.

Question:	Why is shipping so long
Answer:	Shipping has been updated
Question:	Is this safw to use for small kiddie poola
Answer:	These are way too large and strong for a kiddie pool. Buy a 1” floater and 1” tablets instead and only put 1 or 2 of them in it and check your chlorine levels daily. Also, the person who said you need a filtration system for these to work is right. These are way overkill for a kiddie pool!! If yours doesn’t have a filtration system, I would just stick to dumping it and refilling every couple days. Hope this helps.

HTH 42017 Ultimate 3" Chlorinating Tablets

The hth ultimate 3" chlorinating tablets are an effective swimming pool water sanitizer. They are convenient and easy to use and are formulated to protect against chlorine loss from sunlight, and can be used in feeders. They are designed to dissolve slowly to provide a steady source of available chlorine to control the growth of algae, kill bacteria and destroy organic contaminants.

hth Sanitizers

Your pool stays clean and clear with hth sanitizer products, designed to effectively guard against bacteria, algae and other organisms. We offer two types of chlorine-based sanitizers: stabilized and unstabilized.

The hth Benefit:

These convenient and easy to use hth 3” chlorinating tablets are formulated to protect against chlorine loss in direct sunlight, and can be used in feeders. Add 1 tablet per 10 000 gallons of pool water every week, or as often as needed, to maintain a chlorine residual of 1 - 4ppm.

Application instructions:

Place this product in a feeder, floater or skimmer designed for this product. Use in a new feeder or any device which has previously contained only this product, trichloro-s-triazinetrione. Do Not use in feeders that have been used with other water

treatment products. Do Not add other chemicals to the feeder while this product is present. If placed in the skimmer, run the pump a minimum of

eight hours daily. Do Not throw tablets directly into pool or pool surface damage could occur.

Re-entry into treated swimming pools is prohibited above levels of 4 ppm chlorine due to risk of bodily injury.

Test Your Water

How often you should test and balance your pool can vary based on how often you use it and a number of other variables, but it’s important to remember that, for chlorine and pH, you should usually test your pool two to three times a week. That may sound like a lot, but water balance is vital for your pool’s health and the health of the people who swim in it. When your pool is out of balance, your sanitizers can be less effective, the water can cause irritation to the skin and eyes, and if the water gets imbalanced enough, it can even damage the pool’s surfaces, structure, or equipment.

Shock weekly

In ideal circumstances, shocking your pool just once a week will keep it looking clean and clear, but any heavy rainfall, signs of algae, use by lots of swimmers, or periods of very sunny weather can deplete free chlorine levels, which means an extra dose of hth Shock is needed.Sundown is optimum time to shock your pool because the chlorine can work without fighting the sun's ultraviolet rays and has more time to restore water clarity.

Overstabilization: What is it?

While small levels of CYA (20 – 40 ppm) do serve a purpose in protecting chlorine from sunlight degradation, too much can cause problems. Over-stabilization (> 90 ppm) is the buildup of cyanuric acid (CYA) in swimming pool water resulting from the use of stabilized sanitizers and stabilized shock products. It significantly decreases the effectiveness of chlorine in killing germs, bacteria and algae.

hth Pool Care offers sanitizer and shock products that are non-stabilized. These are calcium hypochlorite (cal-hypo) products, do not contain stabilizer and will not cause over-stabilization. Symptoms of overstabilization:

Green water.

High chlorine reading with algae.

Adding chlorine does not get rid of algae What is the Solution to Overstabilization? If the CYA level is > 90ppm, adjust this by partially draining some water from the pool, refilling with fresh water, balancing the water and switching to hth non-stabilized sanitizers and shocks.

Product description

Keep your indoor or outdoor swimming pool clean and clear with HTH Blue Sparkle Skimmer Tabs. Just place a tab in your pool skimmer to destroy bacteria and organic contaminants without adding additional cyanuric acid (CYA) to the water that can lead to over stabilizing your pool.

DIRECTIONS: Use only in skimmer and skimmer basket. Skimmer basket should be free of all other water treatment products before adding the recommended number of Blue Sparkle Skimmer Tab(s). Place skimmer tab in the empty skimmer basket. Use one tab of the product per 10,000 gallons of pool water.

Guard Against Bacteria

HTH Blue Sparkle Skimmer Tabs destroy bacteria and other contaminants to give you sparkling blue crystal-clear water.

Acts Quickly

The sanitizing tabs provide slow-dissolving, long-lasting—yet fast-acting—chlorination.

1. Test and Balance

Dip an HTH 6-Way Test Strip (sold separately) into the water to measure total alkalinity, pH, free available chlorine (FAC), calcium hardness, and stabilizer or cyanuric acid (CYA). Balance water and adjust alkalinity and pH levels, where necessary.

2. Place in Skimmer Basket

Make sure the skimmer basket is free of all other water treatment products. Add one tab per 10,000 gallons of pool water to the skimmer basket.

3. Wait and Test Chlorine Levels

First, make sure the pH of the water is balanced. If the pH is too high or too low, the chlorine sanitizer won’t work as effectively. The ideal pH range is between 7.2 and 7.8.

2. Proper Sanitization Requires Circulation

HTH Ultimate 3" Chlorinating Tablets release chlorine slowly. Run your pump at least 8 hours per day (or night) to ensure your water is properly sanitized.

3. Apply to Feeder, Floater or Skimmer

Place one tablet in pool feeder, floater or skimmer per 10,000 gallons of water every week or as often as needed to maintain a chlorine residual of 1-4 ppm. Do not add directly to the pool as this can cause damage to pool surfaces.

Boost Chlorine

Chlorine sanitizes your pool to remove bacteria and other hazardous contaminants to keep water clean. Use HTH Super Shock! Treatment to restore chlorine levels that have been depleted by the sun, rain and heavy use.

Kill Bacteria & Algae

Low chlorine levels, poor water circulation and warm weather can encourage bacteria and algae growth. Rid your pool of black algae, mustard algae and green algae and prevent regrowth by shocking your pool once a week. Don’t forget to brush the floor and walls of the pool.

Keep Water Clear

The fast-dissolving formula found in HTH shock treatments acts quickly to restore clarity to your water so you can be back in the swimming pool within 24 hours. Plus, the treatment won’t overstabilize your pool or fade your liners.

Test pH Levels

Dip an HTH Multi-purpose 6-Way Test Strip (sold separately) into the water to measure total alkalinity, pH, free available chlorine (FAC), calcium hardness, and cyanuric acid (CYA) or stabilizer. Balance water, and adjust alkalinity and pH levels, where applicable.

2. Apply Directly to Water

Before handling any chemicals, put on protective gloves and goggles. During evening hours and with the pump running, broadcast the HTH Super Shock! Treatment evenly over a wide area in the deepest part of your pool.

3. Wait & Test Chlorine Levels

If granules settle along the bottom of the pool, use a brush to disperse until granules are dissolved. Once free available chlorine levels are between 1 and 4 parts per million, your pool is ready to use again.

Pool Care and Maintenance

It is important to maintain your pool/spa to keep it clean and healthy all year round. Good habits, such as cleaning your filter or emptying your skimmer basket, will ensure that your investment is protected for years to come. But most importantly, you and your family will be able to enjoy the swimming pool or spa each season.

Water Testing

Testing the water weekly or bi-weekly, depending on use and outside variables, helps keep your pool/spa water healthy. Utilizing a DPD or OTO reagent-based water test kit, test strips, or digital testing will help you monitor the pool or spa water chemistry.

Adjusting and Balancing

Adjusting and balancing your pool or spa water chemistry ensures that you will get the most out of the swimming season. The benefit of having good pH and Alkalinity levels is that it will increase the ability of your main sanitizer to kill bacteria. Balanced pool water chemistry will also reduce chemical and maintenance costs. Balanced pH and alkalinity help prevent corrosion and scale formation on the interior pool surface and surrounding equipment.

Sanitizing

There are many different types of sanitizers used in various pool and spa environments. Clean and healthy water starts by establishing a proper residual chlorine level with shock or concentrated granular chlorine. The most common way to maintain a proper chlorine level is by using trichlor chlorine tablets in either a floater or chemical feeder. Applying these steps to your normal maintenance plan will ensure the elimination of non-living organic contaminants, bacteria, micro organisms, and algae making your water safe to enjoy.

Pool Fun and Safety

Now that the water is properly balanced and sanitized, it’s time to get in there and have some fun! We recommend enhancing your outdoor living environment with games, floats or loungers, toys, and accessories. Get creative!

Safety is of the utmost importance, and there are many ways to help make your pool/spa safer. Having a life ring buoy, a shepherd's hook, depth markers, coast guard-approved life preservers, door and water alarms and having your local aquatic environment safety regulations on-hand will ensure a fun and safe environment for your family.

Treatment

Even after all your preparation, sometimes life happens and your pool or spa can get away from you. In those moments, we need to start back from the beginning with testing of the water. Now that you have a clear idea of the current readings, your next steps will depend on the type of symptoms your water is presenting. This may include an issue such as algae (green, yellow, black, etc.), cloudiness, living organics, debris, and other water conditions.

hth Chlorinating Skimmer Sticks 4lb

The hth chlorinating skimmer sticks, 4 lbs. are an effective swimming pool water sanitizer. This convenient and easy to use product is formulated to protect against chlorine loss in direct sunlight, and can be used in the skimmer. They are designed to dissolve slowly to provide a steady source of available chlorine (up to 2 weeks).

hth Sanitizers

Your pool stays clean and clear with hth sanitizer products, designed to effectively guard against bacteria, algae and other organisms. We offer two types of chlorine-based sanitizers: stabilized and unstabilized.

The hth Benefit:

These convenient and easy to use hth chlorinating skimmer sticks are formulated to protect against chlorine loss in direct sunlight, and can be used in the skimmer. They are designed to dissolve slowly to provide a steady source of available chlorine for up to 2 weeks.

Application instructions:

Place this product in the skimmer. Use in skimmer which has previously contained only this product, trichloro-striazinetrione.

Run the pump a minimum of eight hours

daily. DO NOT use in feeders or floaters. DO NOT throw sticks directly into pool or pool surface damage could

occur. DO NOT permit sticks to contact plastic pool linings

or metal objects. DO NOT add other chemicals to the

skimmer while this product is present.

If chlorine residual goes above 4 ppm, reduce skimmer flow rate or daily pump operation time. If chlorine residual goes below 1 ppm, increase skimmer flow rate or daily pump operation time and add enough hth granular shock to maintain 1-4 ppm of chlorine.

Test Your Water

How often you should test and balance your pool can vary based on how often you use it and a number of other variables, but it’s important to remember that, for chlorine and pH, you should usually test your pool two to three times a week. That may sound like a lot, but water balance is vital for your pool’s health and the health of the people who swim in it. When your pool is out of balance, your sanitizers can be less effective, the water can cause irritation to the skin and eyes, and if the water gets imbalanced enough, it can even damage the pool’s surfaces, structure, or equipment.

Shock weekly

In ideal circumstances, shocking your pool just once a week will keep it looking clean and clear, but any heavy rainfall, signs of algae, use by lots of swimmers, or periods of very sunny weather can deplete free chlorine levels, which means an extra dose of hth Shock is needed. Sundown is optimum time to shock your pool because the chlorine can work without fighting the sun's ultraviolet rays and has more time to restore water clarity.

Overstabilization: What is it?

While small levels of CYA (20 – 40 ppm) do serve a purpose in protecting chlorine from sunlight degradation, too much can cause problems. Over-stabilization (> 90 ppm) is the buildup of cyanuric acid (CYA) in swimming pool water resulting from the use of stabilized sanitizers and stabilized shock products. It significantly decreases the effectiveness of chlorine in killing germs, bacteria and algae.

hth Pool Care offers sanitizer and shock products that are non-stabilized. These are calcium hypochlorite (cal-hypo) products, do not contain stabilizer and will not cause over-stabilization.

Symptoms of overstabilization:

-Green water.

-High chlorine reading with algae.

-Adding chlorine does not get rid of algae.

What is the Solution to Overstabilization?

If the CYA level is > 90ppm, adjust this by partially draining some water from the pool, refilling with fresh water, balancing the water and switching to hth non-stabilized sanitizers and shocks.
