On this page it says that you must mix the contents with water and "broadcast" in pool. However, the bag instructions are emphatically the opposite.

It's important to mix with water if you have a vinyl liner. If you have concrete or fiberglass, its not necessary. Broadcasting any chlorine shock directly in the pool with dilution can bleach the liner. A bleached liner becomes a weak liner and in the sun can tear easily.

I would mix it with water as it does not dissolve very well when just thrown in the pool, I will not but this brand again as it does not dissolve well then it sits on the bottom of the pool.

It is not necessary to mix this with water. You only need to broadcast (disperse somewhat evenly) directly into your pool.

I have never mixed the contents with water. I just go around the pool sprinkling and that is it. I have been doing it for the last 8-10 years. It is very quick dissolving or even if it sits a bit at the bottom - it will dissolve ultimately.

I am thinking about trying this product but nowhere does it say how long you have to stay out of the pool. The Aqua Chem I have been getting at Walmart says I only have to wait 15min.

I know, I only mix with water first in the middle of winter when the water is cold cause it dosen't mix well, but in the summer when the waters warm and the pool is active I just pour it in around the borders, I guess it s just to much to put on the bag LOL

Never add water to pool chemicals. The explosion potential, particularly between Calcium Hypochlorite or Ca(OCl)2 (shock) andTrichlor or Trichloro-s-triazinetrione (3" tabs) in the presence of a small amount of water is demonstrated here: http://www.chemaxx.com/pool_chemical_explosion.htm

On the bag says: Broadcast 1lb per 100sq ft. There is 10 lb in the bag should be able to cover 1000sq ft. My friend who referred it does not broadcast. She used as side dressing. 1tbsp per plant. And 1tsp per galloon water for foliage spry. The result, according to my friend, is wonderful. I haven't try it myself yet.

That is exactly what I did, and it works just fine. I spoke with an employee at the pool store and he said there should be some chlorine in the pool. The system will maintain levels. So far I have been quite happy with system. Make sure you buy a water conditioner, so calcium doesn't build up so fast on the salt cell.

The instructions say mix with food. That's what I do. I would ask the company, if u want to put in the water. It will prably taste very funny.

Well get your self a 5 gal bucket and put the 25 micron bag in then in it put the next size micron bag and so on tell the 220 micron bag which is the bag your material goes in the add ice cold water to cover material then add ice. Mix this non stop for 20-30 min. Should be white and frothy during mixing. Let settle for 15-20 mins the. Start draining the bags. Try not to squeeze the bags let them drip out. Well I hope this helps you.

No , between whats in the bag and the water in the syringe you shouldn't need to add any water. Just patience

I have used it with a booster only. I ended up not finishing the bag because I found Finish Quantam worked better. I use this with a booster also. We have horrible hard water and the Finish Quantam works BEST!

Yes, never had bag leak either. Dispose of the bag(s), but keep the boxes and contact the manufacturer. I'm sure they will reimburse you or send more or something. The top part of the item is supposed to attract moisture, then the water collects in the bottom part. Nothing is supposed to come out of the bag.

I was told to just immerse the bag into the water bath (before heating it up) and bring the zip to just above the water line and close it, being careful not allow any water in. I tried sucking the air out as I do with stuff I'm putting in the freezer- bad idea, coughed on garlic powder and pepper!

Yes and you need to follow the directions exactly in the ratio of how much...ratio to water. It is a good product :-)

If you mix the powder with water, it will work, but will not work with dry powder.

I don't know if it's a mixture. I'm not sure how to tell. I was unable to detect any sand in it when I put it in the filter. I replaced some old Zeolite and there was no sand in that. Whatever the case, the product works well. Be sure to follow the instructions and flush the filter thoroughly before circulating into the pool. If you don't you will end up with cloudy water that will probably have to be replaced.

Hi R. Hyder, yes the instructions are on the bag that it comes in. 1 attach tubing to nozzle @ bottom of container. 2.shut off flow control clamp. 3 Add contents of castile soap packet and fill the bucket with appropriate quanity of water. 4.Care should be taken that water temperature is correct. 5 Remove lubrication sheath and proceed to administer enema.That was it, you may be able to gon on their web site to see if they also have more instructions. Hope this helps

We put one per bag as in the directions, they say that even if the bag does suck down the oxygen is supposed to be out. I don't know.Jim

Zeo Sand will expand. Definitely use what the bag calls for. DO NOT OVERFILL! We did that the 1st time and our pump wouldn't work. It was too much sand for the water to try to go through. We put ours in either last year or year before and have had no issues with our pool since. Amazing stuff!

Use as directed by instructions. no. They have one that can be mixed in water but not this one.

From what I understand, this cannot be mixed with water. It's method of action depends on it being dry. Once wet, it loses it's ability to work as it is intended.
