Standing in the garage wondering how much muriatic acid to add? Pool Clarity answers that question in seconds. Enter your test readings and get exact amounts for every chemical, sized to your pool.
Liquid chlorine: exact fluid ounces or gallons to hit your free chlorine target, plus separate shock dosing when combined chlorine climbs.
Muriatic acid and dry acid: doses to lower pH or alkalinity, with a toggle if you prefer granular dry acid over liquid muriatic. Includes the acid-and-aerate method when both TA and pH need work.
Baking soda and soda ash: amounts to raise alkalinity or pH without overshooting.
Calcium chloride: hardness increaser doses to protect plaster and equipment from corrosive water.
Cyanuric acid: stabilizer doses to protect your chlorine from sunlight, and a warning system when CYA gets too high.
Pool salt: bag counts for saltwater generators, based on your current and target salt level.
Adding chemicals in the wrong order wastes money. Raise your alkalinity after fixing pH and the pH moves again. Pool Clarity lists your chemicals in the correct sequence and tells you how long to run the pump between additions.
Each step includes plain-language instructions: pre-dissolve or pour directly, where to add it, and safety notes like never adding more than a set amount at a time.
Every recommendation links to the matching product on Amazon, so you know you are buying the right thing at a fair price instead of whatever the pool store pushes. A built-in shopping list collects everything your current treatment plan needs.
Those affiliate links are how Pool Clarity stays free. No subscription, no ads, no locked features.
