The Industry Standard for Rapid Oxidation.
Poolife TurboShock is a premium, fast-dissolving Calcium Hypochlorite (Cal-Hypo) granular shock with a massive 78% available chlorine content. Delivered in a convenient, pre-measured 1lb bag, it destroys organic contaminants instantly without adding Cyanuric Acid (CYA).
Convenient 1lb Bag
No measuring required. One bag perfectly treats a standard 10,000 gallon pool, eliminating the risk of accidental overdosing or chemical spills.
78% Available Chlorine
The highest concentration available to consumers, providing immediate heavy-duty oxidation.
No Cyanuric Acid Added
Cal-Hypo does not contain stabilizer, meaning you can shock weekly without throwing off your CYA balance.
Common Questions & Instructions
What is the proper dosing instruction for this 1lb bag?
Broadcast the entire 1 lb bag over the deep end of the pool for every 10,000 gallons of water. For a typical 20,000 gallon pool, you will need to open and broadcast 2 complete bags.
How long do I need to wait to swim after shocking?
Always wait until your free chlorine levels drop strictly below 5.0 ppm (ideally 1-3 ppm). With DFW sunlight, this typically happens within 12 to 24 hours of a nighttime shock.
Can I pre-dissolve the bag in a bucket?
While possible, TurboShock dissolves rapidly on its own. If you choose to pre-dissolve, ALWAYS add the chemical to a bucket of water, never add water strictly to the chemical.
