Which chemicals are best for Bestway pools and how much to use — clear, practical guidance:

Best chemicals for Bestway pools:

These pools use the same chemistry as regular backyard pools but in gentler doses due to smaller volume.

1. Chlorine products
Best for disinfection:
• slow-dissolving tablets
• shock chlorine for heavy contamination
Suitable for pools from 1,000–20,000 L.

2. pH adjusters
Water must stay between pH 7.0–7.6, or chlorine becomes ineffective.
• pH Plus
• pH Minus

3. Algaecides
Prevent green algae but do not replace chlorine.

4. Flocculants
Bind fine particles so the filter can catch them; useful for cloudy water.

5. Cleaning agents
Used separately for walls and floor.

Recommended dosing (approx.):

• Chlorine tablets (10 g): 1 tablet per 1,500–2,000 L every 3–5 days.
• Shock chlorine: 10–20 g per 1,000 L when filling or after contamination.
• Algaecide: 5–10 ml per 1,000 L weekly.
• Flocculant: 5–10 ml per 1,000 L for cloudy water.
• pH adjusters: ~10–20 g per 1,000 L (depending on current pH).

Use test strips for accuracy.
