When, why and how to perform shock treatment in a swimming pool?
Shock treatment is used to clean pool water by removing chloramines (the harmful chlorine responsible for odors and irritations) while helping to keep the water clear. It generally contains stabilized chlorine, an oxidant, and a clarifying agent.
Generally, it's used once a week, or more often during heat waves, heavy swimming, or if the chlorine level is low. The video shows two examples: Smart Shock and Shine, which are added directly to the water for fast action.
This weekly shock treatment quickly eliminates organic contaminants from pool water while improving its clarity. Its formula combining an oxidizer and a clarifier restores water clarity and prolongs chlorine's effectiveness.

It is now time to choose the sanitizing system you wish to use to treat your pool water. Many options are available.Â
Owners of salt chlorination systems must remember to turn on the system cell only when the water reaches +/- 65°F to ensure that the cell generates enough chlorine to properly treat the water. If pool water has not reached this temperature, you can use granulated chlorine as indicated on the container.Â
For owners of ozone generators and chlorinators, temperature restrictions do not apply. You can use these systems when starting the pool.Â
Finally, know that there is another simple and efficient way to treat your pool water â use our maintenance kits available in stores.
Chose the option that suits you best to enjoy your pool all summer long!
Throughout the summer, it is your responsibility to test your water once a week with the help of strips or droplets. These tests will help keep your water clean, safe and enjoyable to swim in.Â
It is also very important to visit the store with a water sample once a month to have your water tested at the test counter for a complete analysis and to balance it properly. You will need to take a water sample that has been collected from your pool in a sterile bottle no more than 2 to 3 hours before the test.Â
To analyze the water, we will need to know the volume of water in your pool or the size of the pool and your sanitation system, either salt or chlorine. We will then be able to give you the appropriate recipe to make the water safe for the pool, the equipment and the swimmers.
This will yield important information, starting with your chlorine level. This should be kept between 1 and 3 ppm, or 1 if you have an ozonator. If you are having trouble keeping your chlorine level stable, it may be due to the pH, which should be between 7.4 and 7.6. A pH that is too high or too low will affect the chlorine. For example, the chlorine may evaporate too quickly if the pH is too low, or it may not work at its full capacity if the pH is too high. Be aware that the pH of your eyes is 7.5, which is one of the reasons why the pH of your water should be between 7.4 and 7.6. This will prevent your eyes from hurting upon contact with the water.
If you are having trouble with your pH, it may be because the alkalinity is out of balance. At the water analysis counter, our advisors can help you balance this parameter and inform you about the level of calcium in your pool. This is another important aspect of preserving your equipment for as long as possible, since it has an impact on corrosion, among other things.
Follow the steps of the recommended recipe, since you have waiting times between each addition and must respect a specific order when adding products to your pool. You should also refer to the labels on the products, as each product can be added to the water in a different way, either diluted or directly in the pool. Your water will then be clean and pleasant to swim in.
Storms can affect the chemical parameters of your pool water, notably chlorine and pH. Itâs important to test your water with strips or droplets after heavy rain to check and adjust the chlorine and pH levels.Â
Rain water brings more contaminants so you must provide more chlorine to the water with a pouch of Brillance or Smartchoc.Â
Also, rain is acidic, so it tends to lower the pH level. To increase the pH, we recommend that you test your water in-store to ensure that alkalinity and calcium are well adjusted.Â
Itâs also critical to check the dry well if you have an in-ground pool to ensure that the water level isnât too high. Go to our website, to watch our video tutorial on this topic to avoid that bubbles and pleats appear on your pool liner.Â
And, no matter if you have an above-ground, in-ground, or built-in pool, you must prevent the water level from raising above 3/4 of the skimmer to ensure an optimal filtration. If this were the case, drain some water to reach the right level.Â
Now, go enjoy the nice weather and take a swim before the next storm!Â

Rain water brings more contaminants so you must provide more chlorine to the water with a pouch of Brillance or Smartchoc.Â
Also, rain is acidic, so it tends to lower the pH level. To increase the pH, we recommend that you test your water in-store to ensure that alkalinity and calcium are well adjusted.Â
Itâs also critical to check the dry well if you have an in-ground pool to ensure that the water level isnât too high. Go to our website, to watch our video tutorial on this topic to avoid that bubbles and pleats appear on your pool liner.Â
And, no matter if you have an above-ground, in-ground, or built-in pool, you must prevent the water level from raising above 3/4 of the skimmer to ensure an optimal filtration. If this were the case, drain some water to reach the right level.Â
Now, go enjoy the nice weather and take a swim before the next storm!Â
It is now time to choose the sanitizing system you wish to use to treat your pool water. Many options are available.Â
Owners of salt chlorination systems must remember to turn on the system cell only when the water reaches +/- 65°F to ensure that the cell generates enough chlorine to properly treat the water. If pool water has not reached this temperature, you can use granulated chlorine as indicated on the container.Â
For owners of ozone generators and chlorinators, temperature restrictions do not apply. You can use these systems when starting the pool.Â
Finally, know that there is another simple and efficient way to treat your pool water â use our maintenance kits available in stores.
Chose the option that suits you best to enjoy your pool all summer long!
Throughout the summer, it is your responsibility to test your water once a week with the help of strips or droplets. These tests will help keep your water clean, safe and enjoyable to swim in.Â
It is also very important to visit the store with a water sample once a month to have your water tested at the test counter for a complete analysis and to balance it properly. You will need to take a water sample that has been collected from your pool in a sterile bottle no more than 2 to 3 hours before the test.Â
To analyze the water, we will need to know the volume of water in your pool or the size of the pool and your sanitation system, either salt or chlorine. We will then be able to give you the appropriate recipe to make the water safe for the pool, the equipment and the swimmers.
This will yield important information, starting with your chlorine level. This should be kept between 1 and 3 ppm, or 1 if you have an ozonator. If you are having trouble keeping your chlorine level stable, it may be due to the pH, which should be between 7.4 and 7.6. A pH that is too high or too low will affect the chlorine. For example, the chlorine may evaporate too quickly if the pH is too low, or it may not work at its full capacity if the pH is too high. Be aware that the pH of your eyes is 7.5, which is one of the reasons why the pH of your water should be between 7.4 and 7.6. This will prevent your eyes from hurting upon contact with the water.
If you are having trouble with your pH, it may be because the alkalinity is out of balance. At the water analysis counter, our advisors can help you balance this parameter and inform you about the level of calcium in your pool. This is another important aspect of preserving your equipment for as long as possible, since it has an impact on corrosion, among other things.
Follow the steps of the recommended recipe, since you have waiting times between each addition and must respect a specific order when adding products to your pool. You should also refer to the labels on the products, as each product can be added to the water in a different way, either diluted or directly in the pool. Your water will then be clean and pleasant to swim in.

If the pool remains green after a shock treatment, it's often due to one of the following situations: the shock treatment wasn't strong enough for the amount of algae present, the pH was too high (making chlorine almost ineffective), the filter is saturated and can no longer trap particles, or there are high phosphate levels that feed the algae. In this case, you should: adjust the pH, perform a stronger shock treatment, thoroughly brush the pool, and clean the filter. Sometimes, a clarifier or phosphate remover treatment is necessary to complete the cleaning.
Dissolve the shock chlorine in a bucket of water before adding it to the pool to avoid damaging the liner or coating. Pour the solution all around the pool, keeping the pump running. If you are using a chlorine-free (oxidizing) shock treatment, add it directly to the water according to the manufacturer's instructions. Avoid shock treatment in direct sunlight to prevent loss of effectiveness.
After shocking the system, let the filtration run continuously until the water becomes clear. Brush the walls and bottom to loosen any algae, then clean or rinse the filter, as it accumulates a lot of debris during this process. Next, test the chlorine and pH levels to rebalance the water if necessary. Proper filter maintenance is essential for quick and lasting results.
Shock treatment usually takes effect within a few hours, but you should expect12 to 24 hoursto restore the water to its original clear state. If the water was very green or cloudy, this can take up to48 to 72 hourswith continuous filtration. Always wait until the chlorine level drops below5 ppmbefore swimming.
To perform a shock treatment, first check that the pH is between 7.2 and 7.6 for the product to be fully effective. Then dissolve the recommended amount of shock chlorine in a bucket of water and pour the solution around the perimeter of the pool with the pump running. If the product is in sachets, pour the sachet directly around the perimeter of the pool. Let the filter run continuously to ensure the product is well dispersed. Shock treatment eliminates algae, oxidants, chloramines, and organic contaminants that accumulate in the water.
A pool shock treatment should be performed approximately once every 1 to 2 weeks during the swimming season. It is also recommended to perform it after a storm, heavy pool use, or if the water turns green or cloudy. Proper pH balance before treatment ensures maximum effectiveness.
