Exact chlorine, pH and alkalinity doses for your pool or hot tub from your test.
Read full description
Chlorly turns a pool or hot-tub water test into exact amounts of the products you already own — in the right order, with how long to wait between them. No brand to buy, no guessing.
ENTER YOUR TEST
Free chlorine, combined chlorine, pH, total alkalinity, calcium hardness, CYA (stabiliser), salt, borates and temperature. Leave out what you didn't test. US units (gallons, °F) or metric (litres, °C).
TARGETS THAT FIT YOUR POOL
• Free chlorine follows your CYA level (the FC/CYA method), including the shock (SLAM) level
• pH 7.2–7.8, alkalinity by sanitiser, calcium by surface (plaster, vinyl, fibreglass)
• Salt targets for salt-water generators, bromine for spas
• Every reading gets a colour and a plain-English explanation
EXACT DOSES FOR YOUR PRODUCTS
Tell Chlorly what is on your shelf and the strength on each label: liquid chlorine (10 or 12.5 %), bleach, cal-hypo, dichlor, trichlor, muriatic acid (31.45 % or 14.5 %), dry acid, baking soda, soda ash, calcium chloride, stabiliser, salt and borax. Chlorly works out how much of WHICH product to add, in fl oz, gallons, pounds, millilitres or grams, and shows what else each one changes — acid lowers alkalinity, dichlor adds CYA, cal-hypo adds calcium.
The steps come in a safe order with wait times, and a clear reminder to add one chemical at a time and never mix them.
THE CHEMISTRY, SHOWN
pH corrections come from an acid/base equilibrium model that accounts for alkalinity, CYA and borates, not a rough table. The saturation index (CSI, the Langelier index adapted for pools) tells you whether your water is etching plaster or laying down scale. Every formula is unit-tested against published reference values.
POOL VOLUME CALCULATOR
Rectangle, round, oval, kidney or freeform, with shallow and deep ends — or type the volume in.
