Introducing the Blue Horizons Granular Shock, your ultimate solution for maintaining a pristine and healthy swimming pool environment. This traditional stabiliser-free granular shock is designed to effectively destroy swimmer wastes, prevent and eliminate algae, and ensure your pool water stays crystal clear and safe for swimming.
One of the key features of the Blue Horizons Granular Shock is its ability to help prevent and remove algae growth in your pool. Algae can quickly take hold in pool water, leading to unsightly green or cloudy water. By using this granular shock regularly, you can keep algae at bay and maintain a beautiful pool all season long.
In addition to algae prevention, this powerful shock treatment is specially formulated to destroy swimmer wastes. Organic contaminants such as sweat, oils, and other pollutants introduced by swimmers can build up in pool water, creating a breeding ground for bacteria and affecting water clarity. The Blue Horizons Granular Shock effectively eliminates these contaminants, ensuring your pool water remains fresh and inviting.
Not only does this granular shock target algae and swimmer wastes, but it can also be used for regular disinfection of your pool water. With a high pH level of 11.5, this product is effective at sanitizing your pool and maintaining water clarity. By following the application instructions provided, you can achieve the ideal balance of pH and free chlorine residuals for a safe and enjoyable swimming experience.
When using the Blue Horizons Granular Shock, it is important to maintain pH levels within the recommended range of 7.2 – 7.6. If your pH levels are outside of this range, adjustments should be made to ensure optimal water balance. Additionally, routine maintenance of free chlorine residuals in the 1 – 3mg/l range is advised, with shock treatments recommended on a weekly or fortnightly basis.
To apply the granular shock, simply pre-dissolve the product in a clean plastic container at the specified rate and add the solution to your pool while the pump is running. This ensures even distribution of the product throughout the water, maximizing its effectiveness. If needed, repeat the dosage to achieve the desired chlorine level and clarity in your pool.
After treatment with the Blue Horizons Granular Shock, you may notice temporary cloudiness in your pool water. This is normal and can be remedied by keeping the filtration pump running until the water clears. It is recommended to wait for the chlorine levels to drop below 5mg/l before resuming swimming, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for bathers.
For different pool volumes, dosing rates are provided to help you increase the chlorine level as needed. Whether you are maintaining a small residential pool or a larger commercial facility, the Blue Horizons Granular Shock offers versatile dosing options to suit your specific requirements.
Overall, the Blue Horizons Granular Shock is a reliable and effective solution for keeping your pool water clean, clear, and algae-free. With its powerful formulation and easy application process, this granular shock is a must-have for any pool owner looking to maintain a healthy swimming environment. Trust Blue Horizons for quality pool care products that deliver results you can see and feel.
