About this app

Pool Water Calculator provides everything you need to quickly balance and maintain your pool or hot tub. Built for both beginners and experts alike, Pool Water Calculator provides treatment directions and dosage information for a wide variety of pool chemicals and water quality parameters for nearly all pool types and spas.

Visualize your water quality history through an assortment of beautiful and reactive graphs, enabling you to follow your progress or identify potential problems. Track your chemical additions and maintenance events, or update previous datapoints as needed to fine-tune your records.

Manage up to five different pools or spa profiles, with each profile maintaining a unique water chemistry and treatment history, individual chemical targets, custom notes, and maintenance records.

Quickly find the optimal chemical targets and ranges based on your pool type and current water chemistry. Customized water quality graphs illustrate your pool's chemistry in relation to the ideal targets or applicable water chemistry curves, while guidance items will advise you if you're in range or need to take action before problems occur.

Customize chemical strengths (1 to 100%) to find precise dosing information for nearly any standard pool chemical.

The Dosing Guide explains each water quality parameter and its role in balancing your pool, the treatment chemicals available for adjusting each of these parameters, and instructions on how to add them to your pool or spa.

Ratings and reviews

I am a maintenance technician and have to keep pools in perfect condition and keep careful records. I am regularly inspected by the health department. This app has made my life much easier. The chemical recommendations are accurate and keep the pool levels perfect. Not only can you track your chemicals with a click of a button but you can also track your maintenance like vacuuming and backwashing. The app is very intuitive and is very easy to use. There are even graphs to show your trends.

I stick my phone in the water and the app never updates with the chemical levels in the water! Just kidding. :D This app is awesome. Honestly, it makes maintaining pools and spas too easy. I spent a lot of time and money learning to calculate the chemicals needed and this app takes all of that away so that any moron can maintain their pool/spa. It's not fair! Seriously, great app folks. I look forward to the next update when we can just stick our phone in the water to get the readings.

App is fantastic! Once you input the specifics of your pool and spa size, everything is calculated for you automatically as soon as you input your water measurements. It tells you exactly what chemicals to add and how much of said chemical in order to bring your water measurements in line with your target numbers. I'd also graphs how that data changes over time. Truly fantastic app and huge time saver! Also, the developer is extremely quick to answer questions and make changes in the app.
