PuriTech Stabilizer Conditioner Cyanuric Acid UV Protection for Swimming Pools and Spas (25lbs)

This product is a finer grit than a different brand I've used....it still does not quickly dissolve. That is the nature of the chemical composition, not this (or any other) brand's fault. HERE'S HOW WE ADD CYA... --I attempt to dissolve 1/2 lb. of CYA at a time in VERY hot water (from an electric kettle) in a bucket. This is done outdoors and all safety precautions listed on the pkg. are followed. --Even though I stir it well for 3-5 minutes almost all of the product is still undissolved in the bucket. --I then pour the remaining CYA/water into our skimmer basket -- fitted with the skimmer sock -- run the pump and within 45 minutes the CYA is dissolved into the pool water. --I repeat that process if I need to add more CYA. Another reviewer has fashioned a similar setup by tying a sock filled with CYA to the pool ladder and letting it dissolve over the course of a few days. Our method utilizes an already amazing product (skimmer sock) to keep our water pristine AND to distribute CYA in a safe manner. SKIMMER SOCK ENDORESEMENT.... If you are not already using skimmer socks for your pool's filter...you MUST get these to ensure absolutely sparkling pool water! We use a fine mesh (almost like orthopedic sock material) skimmer sock on our sand filter's skimmer basket. These trap an UNBELIEVABLE amount of debris before it hits the sand filter, and we swap it out each and every day. We rinse and clean it off, dry it and reuse next time. These pay for themselves in no time! They delay the need for backwashing (losing warm and chemically treated water) and saves you $$ for chemicals. Research this (on Amazon) and get some...quick!

I have been using this product for years and it is definitely worth your attention. I have a 18,000 gallon pool located in South Florida and this product helps retain chlorine in my pool. It comes with a resealable bag perfect for storing the unused portions of the product. It works well and it’s one of the best products on the market. Happy with the purchase. Buy one and be happy. N

I use this product weekly in my pool. It performs well and is reasonably priced. I have found that it dissolves best when placed in a sock in the skimmer basket. The water slurry bucket method is not effective.

Great price and quick delivery. Dissolves quickly. If you have a salt pool, this is a great product.

Puritech has great value chemicals. They don't waste money on unnecessary pictures or marketing, just a good product at a good price. The only reason it's not 4 star is they boxes can come open in shipping. I have received three and so far the inner bag has not been damaged, but one box was open and another loose. This is most likely due to rough handling, but some more tape would probably be good.

BEST PRICE I HAVE FOUND

Can't Imagine what anyone could complain about with this Product. I see a lot of people complaining that it does not break down easy. Well anyone that uses Stabilizer, knows it is not an instant process. However, I have found this to be extremely easy to break down relative to prior products I have tried. I use a thin linen type material and tie a ball of it together, hang it off my Ladder(see pics) and let it sit for a 2/3 days. I do work it a bit, splashing and squeezing to agitate it and it breaks up pretty easy for me. What you have to consider is that it takes a while to get your CYA levels low, so taking a few days to increase the level should be expected with all CYA! Product works great for me!

Worked as directed. Great value.
