Best Time to Buy Pool Chemicals in NJ (Hint: It’s Now)

If you’re a pool owner in Northern New Jersey, you already know: once summer hits, your pool becomes the centerpiece of backyard fun. But keeping that water crystal clear and safe takes more than a splash of chlorine… it takes planning, regular maintenance, and the right supplies. So when is the best time to stock up on pool chemicals?

Right now. Mid-June is the sweet spot, and here’s why.

💡 Why Mid-June Is the Ideal Time to Restock

1. Peak Pool Season Is Just Beginning
The real heat of summer hasn’t hit yet, but it’s coming. Stocking up now ensures you’re ready before the July heatwaves, backyard BBQs, and long weekends push demand (and prices) up.

2. Avoid the Rush and Empty Shelves
Once July rolls in, everyone who waited until the last minute will be hitting the stores for chlorine tabs, shock, algaecide, test strips, and stabilizers. Buying now means you won’t be left with second-choice brands or overpaying.

3. Get Expert Advice While It’s Still Calm
Our staff at Jersey Chemicals is here to help, but once summer hits full swing, lines get longer, and personal attention gets harder to find. Shop early to get personalized water care recommendations and tips.

4. Prep for the Mid-Summer Slump
Even seasoned pool owners sometimes forget that mid-summer heat can throw off water chemistry fast. Stocking up now means you’re ready to handle algae, cloudy water, and high chlorine demand without scrambling.

🛒 What to Stock Up On Now

  • Chlorine tablets & liquid chlorine

  • Shock treatments (calcium or non-chlorine options)

  • pH and alkalinity balancers

  • Algaecide

  • Cyanuric acid (stabilizer)

  • Test strips or liquid test kits

And don’t forget, we offer free in-store water testing, so bring a sample when you stop in!
