Pool & Spa Chemical Adjustment Calculators
Enter your pool or spa volume and settings below. All calculators will use this information to estimate chemical doses. Always verify against product labels and local codes.
Recommended Chemical Adjustment Order
- Test Water (TA, pH, CH, CYA, and chlorine)
- Total Alkalinity (TA) (ideal: 80–120 ppm)
- pH (ideal: 7.4–7.6)
- Stabilizer (CYA) (only if needed; outdoor pools)
- Sanitizer (Free/Total Chlorine)
- Calcium Hardness (CH) (ideal: 200–400 ppm)
- Shock (if needed; best when sun is down)
- Algaecide (optional) (after chlorine drops back into normal range)
Always add one chemical at a time and allow circulation/filtration time between additions before retesting.
