Swimming Pool Chemical - Sodium Bisulfate
Sodium bisulfate is often used in swimming pools as a pH decreaser and sanitizer. It can help to lower the pH of the water and prevent the growth of algae and bacteria. However, it is important to use sodium bisulfate carefully, as it can be hazardous if not handled properly. It is recommended to follow the manufacturer’s instructions and wear protective gear when handling sodium bisulfate. Additionally, it is important to regularly test the pH and chlorine levels in your pool to ensure they are within the appropriate range.
Sodium bisulfate granular formula is an easy way to decrease the pH in your pool pool. The best part about it is that it is safe for use around your family and pets, unlike some of the other options out there. We are a

The advantages of Sodium Bisulfate
- Sodium bisulfate is also referred to as dry acid or acid salt.
- sodium bisulfate is used to lower the pH and alkalinity of your pool.
- Wait at least 6 hours before jumping back into the pool after adding sodium bisulfate, and make sure to check the pH and alkalinity levels of the pool before you do so.
- Muriatic acid is an alternative to sodium bisulfate, but it is more dangerous to handle.
- Never mix with other chemicals including household cleaners as a dangerous reaction may occur.

More about Sodium Bisulfate
What is Sodium Bisulfate for pools?
Sodium bisulfate is a dry acid. It comes as a white, grainy crystalline solid that dissolves easily in water. Sodium bisulfate maintains a very acidic pH of around 1. It is commonly used to lower the pH and alkalinity of swimming pools. In pool management, sodium bisulfate is also known as: pH down, pH reducer, Alkalinity reducer, acid salt.
Your pool’s pH should be between 7.4 and 7.6. If your pool’s pH gets too high, it will affect the effectiveness of the other chemicals, particularly chlorine. Ineffective chlorine can increase the likelihood of waterborne illnesses, skin irritation, cloudy water, equipment damage, pool tile scaling, and clogged filters. Test the pH of your pool water and if it is above 7.6, use sodium bisulfate to lower it.
How to Add Sodium Bisulfate to Your Pool?
Follow the product instructions. Dosage rates will vary depending on your pool’s volume & current pH level. The initial dosage is 15-30 oz. per 10,000 gallons. Once measured, simply pour the granular formula directly into the pool. Turn on your pool so the granules are evenly distributed.
STEP 1: TEST YOUR PH
There are a few ways you can test your pool’s pH — from test strips to liquid testing to digital testers. No matter what you use to test your pool, optimal pH levels should read between 7.2 and 7.6.
If your pH is really high, you might want to test your alkalinity too. High alkalinity often correlates with high pH.
STEP 2: MEASURE SODIUM BISULFATE
Using sodium bisulfate is easy. All you need to know is how many gallons your pool holds then follow your pH reducer’s directions listed on the label. Here’s an example chart:
Once measured, simply pour the granular formula directly into the pool. Turn on your pool so the granules are evenly distributed. Don’t have a pool pump? No problem. Just use a paddle to circulate the water yourself.
STEP 3: GIVE YOUR PH DECREASER TIME TO WORK
While it works fast, sodium bisulfate doesn’t work instantly. Give the formula time to distribute evenly throughout your pool.
STEP 4: TEST PH LEVELS AGAIN
After a couple of hours, test your pool’s pH. If your pool’s pH isn’t in the optimal range (7.2 to 7.6), you’ll have to make some small adjustments.
