    Richard, is your chart at all dependent on # of gallons the 1lb is added to?
    Holy mackerel! Yes, I ran this on my spreadsheet at 16,000 gallons so you definitely need to adjust for that! Good catch!

    So if your pool is larger, then increase the amount of Borax you need to add by that relative amount compared to 16,000 and likewise reduce the amount of Borax if it is smaller. Sorry about that! I'll update my post to reflect this.

    Specifically, the 5400 gallon pool roytyson is using would use about 1/3rd the amount based on the table.
