Adding powder CYA in a pool suggest that you add it into the skimmer however, most above ground pool does not come with a skimmer. If you tried adding the powder directly into the water, you will realize that the powder does not mix easily into the water.

If you do not have a skimmer, one technique that you can do is to add the powder into a sock or any piece of cloth and place it to the return screen or simply leave it in the water for at least 10 minutes then squeeze it out of the socks as I demonstrated in this video. You can also do the same technique with a Dry Acid. The only powder that I add directly into the pool is the shock.

    I thought a pool sock was something special. It's just a sock... Good to know thanks so much.

    How long would you wait to add this after shocking the pool? Also thanks for this idea, not a fan of those giant tablets,

    I just poured it in , and kept swirling it around, now I know to use a sock. So how long does it take to dissolve if I poured it in? I have a vinyl pool. I’m new to this pool stuff
