Chlorine Washing Pool Surface

This video shows how to properly chlorine wash a pool surface. This pool had been sitting for well over a year and had green & mustard algae caked up on the side of the pool. We planned on showing you how to acid wash the pool in another video but unfortunately our camera battery died and we weren't able to film it this time. However we are planning on making an acid wash video soon. This video is 100% unedited. Please check out our Facebook and website to see before and after pictures!

    @@samoea19 sorry but you wrong. When sodium hypochlorite (liquid chlorine) is dissolved in water it turns to hypochlorous acid which is a weak acid that is still a sanitizer. In fact when salt water is passed thru an electric current it makes hypochlorous acid to sanitize your salt water pool. Hydrochloric acid has a ph of approx. 3. It will not sanitize your pool.

An I've been scrubbing it WHILE I've been applying the chlorine. Not sure what should do, I suppose I can try using the chlorine straight and grab singe more extra if I need. Was trying to figure out, how to cut an mix the muriatic acid and hopefully that will do the trick.

    If he was me, would use a 300 gallon tank to premix and place at edge on shallow end and refill a 3 - 5 gallon pump sprayer instead of a 1 - 2 gallon garden watering jug, using a spigot at the base of the premix tank, instead of how he was doing it wasting time. And I would be wearing a face mask and respirator due to my disliking of the smell of chlorine for more than ten seconds to a minute. This is why so many are converting to or going the way of a natural swimming pool/pond with fresh water and lots of plants to not have to deal with and pay for this type of mess and the chemical treatments.

    Water first, chemicals after the water. Agree mask and eyewear. I have been doing acid washes for years. Easier if you have a helper, where one pours from top down or with a chemical sprayer and other scrubs and cleans off with water. But, over the years each in their own ways - just take precaution. Recommend hiring a professional who has access to quality chems not box retailer chems. Chlorine Wash to remove debris and dried algae, Acid Wash to whiten, brighten and remove most stains.
