We live in South Texas where sunlight and UV rays are high year round. We also have cartridge filters where there is no need to backwash. These granules are far better for sanitation and algae control without having to manage cyanuric acid level build up when using stabilized tablets. We have found this treatment to be the best solution for maintaining clear water.

GREAT PRODUCT, it never fails to perform! I had not opened my pool last year due to filter issues and the ability to afford an new one so as you can imagine the gunk that accumulated for the past two years was not pleasant. After using this pool shock I could the water went from black swamp to lime green pond and the bottom of the pool was visible to vacuum. Once that was done I let the pool run 24 hours, backwashed and shocked again and the green was gone! This is an AMAZING product and I highly recommend it. I use it weekly just to keep things clean and fresh. Thank you In the Swim for your great shipping rates and sales too, pool chemicals got very expensive over the past years and you keep the product at the LOWEST prices out there!

This shock works really well and it is a bargain compared to other companies. It is also very easy to use since the bags are pre-measured at 1 pound.
