BioGuard Burnout 3 Pool Shock 1 lb Granules (24-Pack) — Fast-Dissolving Calcium Hypochlorite, Quick Oxidizing

BioGuard Burnout 3 is a fast-dissolving calcium hypochlorite shock in a 1 lb granule form that quickly oxidizes organic contaminants to restore pool clarity and sanitation.

When your pool looks cloudy, has a chlorine demand spike, or needs a routine shock, Burnout 3 delivers a concentrated burst of free chlorine in a granular, quick-dissolving formula that can be broadcast directly into the water. Formulated by BioGuard for compatibility with vinyl and plaster surfaces and for use alongside chlorine or bromine sanitizers, this 1 lb product is sold here in a convenient 24-pack for seasonal maintenance or commercial use.

How quickly will Burnout 3 clear cloudy or contaminated water?

Because it uses calcium hypochlorite in a fine-granule form, Burnout 3 dissolves rapidly and releases a strong oxidizing dose of chlorine to address organic load and bacteria. You can expect elevated free chlorine levels soon after application, followed by improved water clarity as contaminants are neutralized.

• Typical shock dose: 1 lb per 10,000 gallons for routine shock treatment.
• For heavier demand or superchlorination: 2 lb per 12,000 gallons.
• Algae control application: 2 lb per 12,000 gallons.
• Designed for fast dissolution—no pre-mixing required.

Is Burnout 3 safe for my vinyl or plaster pool surface?

Burnout 3 is formulated to be used safely in both vinyl and plaster pools when dosed according to instructions. It avoids the bleaching and surface risks associated with some harsher shock products when applied properly and allowed to circulate.

• Made to BioGuard’s quality standards for pool chemistry safety.
• Follow label dosing and allow filtration to run after treatment.
• Do not exceed recommended doses; test levels before reentry.
• Compatible with standard chlorine and bromine sanitizers.

How do I apply Burnout 3 and what should I test afterward?

Application is simple: sprinkle the granular shock evenly around the deep end or perimeter while the pump is running to promote rapid dissolution and distribution. After treatment, run the filtration system and test total and free chlorine, pH, and combined chlorine until levels return to the safe range for swimming.

• Routine shock: 1 lb per 10,000 gallons—broadcast directly into pool.
• Superchlorinate or treat algae: 2 lb per 12,000 gallons.
• Run filter continuously for several hours after application.
• Wait to swim until free chlorine is within recommended safe levels.

• Cost-effective for regular weekly or monthly shock schedules.
