What Customers Are Saying
The product is generally effective at lowering pool pH levels, with most users finding it easy to use and quick-acting. However, some customers reported that it did not lower pH enough or had little effect on high pH. A few also mentioned issues with the packaging, such as leaks. Overall, the product seems to be a reliable option for maintaining proper pool chemistry, though a small number of users experienced less than satisfactory results.

Light weight on 5# bags
I’ve been using this product for a while now, it’s economical and a handy size bag. Although I’ve almost always had to add more product than recommended, it does work. My beef today is I just weight the gross bag weight of two of my unopened bags. Both bags gross weigh was less than 80oz (including the bag). So the gross weight of average was 77.5oz. Not a big deal to a consumer, but not a good look for a corporation with a good name to be under the advertised weight of their product.

PH down for pool, works
Would RecommendWorks well for my pool to lower PH. I measured it by weight into a glass jar, added warm water and shook it up until dissolved, then added to pool. When using a larger amount use a bigger container or two smaller amounts - it takes at least 2 cups of water to fully dissolve 3 oz of powder.
