Chlorine Ppm Calculator

This tool helps you calculate the chlorine concentration in parts per million (ppm) in your pool or spa.

Pool Volume in Gallons: Current PPM Level: Desired PPM Level: Chlorine Concentration (%): Ounces of Chlorine Needed:

How to Use the Calculator

To calculate the amount of chlorine needed to reach your desired chlorine parts per million (PPM) in your pool:

Enter the volume of your pool in gallons.
Enter the current chlorine PPM level.
Enter the desired chlorine PPM level.
Enter the concentration percentage of your chlorine source.
Press the “Calculate” button.

The result will show you the amount of chlorine (in ounces) you need to add to reach the desired PPM.

How It Calculates

The calculator determines the difference between your current and desired chlorine levels (in PPM). It then multiplies this difference by the pool volume and a conversion factor to compute the volume of chlorine needed. Finally, it divides by the concentration of your chlorine source to get the amount of chlorine (in ounces) required.

Limitations

Please note that this calculator assumes uniform mixing and does not account for chlorine loss due to sunlight, temperature, or organic materials in the pool. Regular testing and adjustment are recommended to maintain proper chlorine levels.
