DryTec Products

Great value. Works too

I did a lot of research before I purchased this DryTec brand of hypochlorite chlorine pool shock. I usually use “In The Swim “brand of chemicals in my pool but when I was on Amazon I came across the DryTec . It got great reviews. I used my perplexity AI search engine and googled it as well. Nice high quality product works well . It’s 68% Calcium Hypochlorite. So it’s nice and strong. It keeps my water crystal clear. It’s very easy to use. I have an in ground gunite pool so I just open the bag and disperse it over the water in my deep end.My pool had 33,000 gallons of water so I use 3 one pound bags per application. I usually use it preventively once every 4 weeks. I don’t understand what a company that makes compressed air equipment has to do with pool chemicals but this company makes a great pool shock. I get the 24 pack size it was $114 last time I ordered it which is a great price. It’s is as good or better than the In The Swim shock I use to use.

Absolutely love this product. Helps to keep our pool sparkling clean! Easy to use and the quality is unmatched.

This product is an excellent choice for pool maintenance. It's much better than shock with stabilizer, in my opinion. Here's why: - Using shock with stabilizer in it for extended periods will cause your cyanuric acid levels to rise above limits and leave your chlorine ineffective (useless, if high enough). - Calcium Hypochlorite is a better product than stabilized chlorine, and it's normally much more expensive than stabilized chlorine. It's only cheaper now because resellers bought out the stabilized shock and are now reselling it to you at a significant profit) - To use Calcium Hypochlorite, just stabilize your pool with cyanuric acid (available on Amazon). Once you reach the desired PPM (parts per million), you won't have to add any more. It does not evaporate (which, btw, is the problem with stabilized shock ... you keep putting in more cyanuric acid every time you shock). - Important: get your PH up to 7.4 (7.2 - 7.6), and keep it there, and your algae problems will diminish significantly. - Also, treat your pool with algaecide to keep algae from growing. Shock will kill algae, but its purpose is to kill harmful bacteria. Algae is just annoying

I travel frequently, sometimes for extended periods of time, which makes pool maintenance without hiring a service a real pain. This is particularly troublesome with an in-ground pool in Florida in Summer that has no shade. I waited to post a review until after I'd ordered 2 separate batches to test for quality control, and quite simply: this is the BEST shock I've ever used. I've come back from trips to solid green slime pits with heavy stripes of the dreaded black spot algae, and 2-3bags of this stuff + a couple of chlorine tablets with the filter running will turn my pool back to blue overnight. Like other reviewers, I have noticed that my water is a little cloudy the next 24-32hrs--- but in my case, I chalk that up to so much dead organic material & algae that needs to be filtered out. This stuff kills ALL the nasty stuff--- but until it's vacuumed or filtered out, it's still in the water. It works when nothing else does, and does a better & faster job. It's also priced very competitively. If you have a problem pool, or a problem with regular maintenance, this stuff is AMAZING. It terminates even the most durable, hardened, and persistent algae with extreme prejudice, you just have to give your vacuum or filter a chance to clear the battlefield of all the millions of algae corpses once it's finished annihilating them, and then declare unconditional victory. If you're just looking for regular pool maintenance, this may be a little strong for your needs. I will say that when I'm around to take care of it, one bag of this every 2-3 weeks, plus a couple of chlorine tablets does the trick (without cloudiness). Where it really shines though is in rehabilitating seemingly terminally green monsters back into beautiful blue pools.
