welcome to the standard chemicals resource center.

Here you'll find professional pool chemistry tools, safety documentation, and educational articles to help you maintain clean, safe, and properly balanced pool water.

Whether you're a homeowner maintaining your backyard pool or a professional pool service technician, these resources are designed to help you quickly determine the right chlorine dosing, understand product safety information, and learn best practices for pool water care.

Pool Chlorine Calculators

Proper chlorine dosing is essential for effective pool sanitation. Our calculators help you determine the correct amount of chlorine to add based on your pool size and current water conditions.

Pool Shock

calculator

Title

Use our Pool Shock Calculator to determine how much calcium hypochlorite shock is required to raise your pool’s free chlorine level. This calculator is helpful when:

Opening a pool for the season

Treating algae or cloudy water

Performing routine shock treatments

Recovering from heavy pool usage or storms

Pool volume, current chlorine level, and target chlorine level are used to calculate the correct amount of shock needed.

Title

Our Chlorine Tablet Calculator helps determine the correct number of chlorine tablets required to maintain consistent sanitation in your swimming pool. This tool is useful for:

Maintaining stable chlorine levels

Planning weekly tablet usage

Determining how many tablets to add to a chlorinator or floater

Simply enter your pool size to estimate how many tablets are required for proper chlorination.

Title

Use our Pool Size Calculator to estimate how many gallons of water your pool holds. Your gallon count is the starting point for dosing shock, chlorine tablets and most other pool chemicals. This calculator is helpful when:

Finding out how many gallons are in your pool

Working out how much shock or how many chlorine tablets to use

Setting up a new pool or opening one for the season

Checking a gallon count you've only been guessing at

Enter your pool's length, width, and depth (including shallow and deep end depths if your pool has them) to estimate your pool's volume in gallons.
