PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Collectively, we refer to the sum of calcium and magnesium salts in solution as total hardness. For the purposes of balancing the water, we are only interested in the calcium hardness of the water. Water with low calcium hardness is aggressive and will look to obtain more calcium by dissolving it from pool surfaces and equipment. Water that is high in calcium hardness will generally be cloudy and can precipitate out to form rough scaly surfaces, clog filters and plumbing, and lead to inefficient heating. Calcium hardness can only be decreased by partially draining pool water and refilling it with water with a lower calcium content. Essential Elements Calcium Hardness Increaser is used to increase the calcium hardness of the water. Calcium hardness should be tested monthly and maintained between 200 and 400ppm.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
• High yield calcium increaser
• pH between 8.0 – 11.0
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
• Calcium Chloride
APPLICATION & DOSAGE
It is recommended to split required doses into 5 pound increments of Essential Elements Calcium Hardness Increaser. Splitting large doses into smaller 5 pound increments can help prevent temporary water cloudiness, which may arise from the addition of Essential Elements Calcium Hardness Increaser. In a plastic pail of pool water, pre-dissolve each smaller addition of Essential Elements Calcium Hardness Increaser. Once the product is dissolved in the water, and with the filter system operating, simply pour the dissolved product onto the surface of the water. Wait 2 hours before adding the next smaller addition in the same way.
