Pool Pros text questions here In this conversation, Rudy Stankowitz emphasizes the critical role of calcium hardness and total dissolved solids (TDS) in pool chemistry. He explains how these factors influence the effectiveness of chlorine, algaecides, and other pool chemicals, highlighting the importance of maintaining the right balance for optimal pool performance. Takeaways Calcium hardness and TDS are crucial for pool chemistry. They influence how effectively chlorine works. Proper levels allow other chemicals to perform optimally. Incorrect levels lead to inefficiencies in pool products. Understanding these factors is key to pool maintenance. They dictate the performance of algaecides and enzymes. Maintaining balance is essential for stain and scale prevention. Every chemical added must work against the existing conditions. The right environment enhances overall pool health. Pool chemistry is interconnected and requires careful management. "They dictate how fast chlorine works." "Calcium hardness and TDS are stage players." "Get the calcium and TDS environment right."
