This granular formula disperses rapidly when added through the skimmer or after premixing, letting you bring a new or refilled pool into the recommended 40–100 ppm stabilizer range. Always check cyanuric acid levels with a reliable test kit and follow the included dosing chart to get predictable results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow quickly will Pool Mate dissolve and start stabilizing my pool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe granules are formulated to disperse rapidly when added while the pump is running, dissolving fully with 24 hours of continuous circulation.
