Alkalinity Up 10 lb (EZC-50-7210)
Stabilize your pool pH by raising total alkalinity with E-Z Clor Alkalinity Up. Low alkalinity causes erratic pH swings that corrode equipment and irritate swimmers. This 10 lb pouch gets your water balanced and keeps it there.
The Foundation of Balanced Pool Water
Total alkalinity is the unsung hero of pool water chemistry. It acts as a pH buffer, preventing the wild swings that cause equipment corrosion, cloudy water, and swimmer discomfort. When your alkalinity drops below 80 ppm, your pH becomes unstable and nearly impossible to control. E-Z Clor Alkalinity Up is pure sodium bicarbonate that raises total alkalinity safely and predictably.
Key Benefits
- Raises total alkalinity to the ideal 80–120 ppm range
- Buffers pH to prevent erratic swings that damage heaters, pumps, and pool surfaces
- Sodium bicarbonate formula is safe for all pool types and surfaces
- Resealable 10 lb pouch keeps unused product dry and effective
How to Use
Test your pool’s total alkalinity with a reliable test kit. If below 80 ppm, add 1.5 lbs of Alkalinity Up per 10,000 gallons to raise TA by approximately 10 ppm. Broadcast the product over the deep end with the pump running. Wait 6 hours and retest before adding more. Adjust in increments rather than all at once for the most accurate results. Always adjust alkalinity before adjusting pH.
