Description
These chlorine tablets are one of the most popular products for ensuring swimming pool water is safe and bacteria free. They are stabilised to minimise chlorine loss to sunlight. They slowly release chlorine over 3–5 days depending on the water flowing over them.
They can be used in floating dispensers, chemical feeds and skimmer baskets.
Apply regularly to achieve the recommended free chlorine level of 3-5 mg/l (ppm) for hot tubs or 1-3 mg/l (ppm) for swimming pools. These tablets are slow release and long lasting and have the minimum effect on the pH of the water for a stabilised chlorine tablet.
Key Features
Its best to operate a free Chlorine Range of 3 – 5mg/l for hot tubs and 1-3mg/l for swimming pools. These stabilised chlorine tablets are ideal for regular dosing of your swimming pool, to produce free active chlorine which kills bacteria and other potentially harmful organisms. They contain a high level of available chlorine and chlorine stabiliser.
Application Instructions
1. Maintain pH level within the ideal range of 7.2 – 7.6. If outside this range please use our PH plus or PH minus products to adjust for the best results.
2. Maintain free chlorine residuals for swimming pools between 1 – 3mg/l (ppm). Freshly filled pools require an initial shock or start up dose of chlorine: 50mg/l (ppm) for 1 hour or 20mg/l (ppm) for 2 hours.
3. For floating dispenser: Fill the floating dispenser with tablets and adjust the aperture mechanism at the bottom of the dispenser to obtain the 1-3mg/l (ppm) desired range. Alternatively keep the dispenser aperture constant and vary the tablets inside to achieve 1-3mg/l (ppm). The dispenser should be removed from the pool whilst swimmers are bathing.
4. For chlorine feeders: Fill the dispenser and follow feeder instruction manuals on flow regulation to maintain 1-3 mg/l (ppm) chlorine levels.
5. For skimmer baskets: Fill the basket with 2/3 tablets and monitor levels to maintain 1-3 mg/l (ppm) chlorine levels.
6. It is recommended that you periodically (e.g. fortnightly or after heavy use) shock dose your pool to eliminate any excess contamination.
Note: If using in skimmer baskets we would suggest you run the pump often to prevent a build up of chlorine. Please ensure children to not have access to the skimmer as this could be dangerous.
Dose Rates (subject to water flow rate and temperature)
Small pool 40,000 litres of water requires approx 1 tablet to increase the chlorine level by 1mg/l (ppm) or approx 3 tablets to increase chlorine level by 3mg/l(ppm)
Large pool 80,000 litres of water requires approx 2 tablets to increase the chlorine level by 1mg/l (ppm) or approx 6 tablets to increase chlorine level by 3mg/l(ppm)

Great for our pool

These are huge!! Thought they would fit in my pool floater but not a chance they must be about 3″ in diameter. Not very many either

10ft pool still clear after a week (we do have a little filter). We have a very hard water here so not sure the value in the test strips as we are off the scale but so far so good.

Using in 8ft pool. Comes with 10 tabs, 1 tab has lasted over a week and has kept the pool clear from bacteria. The bottom of the pool is clean and non slippery also. Good buy ðŸ‘ðŸ‘

Useless item. Used my floater and after 2 days, nothing had dissolved. My test strips detected NO Chlorine whatsoever. Thr packaging smelt very very strong on arrival but I trusted the seller. I ended up putting one into the pool directly – what a stupid idea, it has bleached the bottom of my new pool. Seller has to agree to refund before you can send the item back – of course they ask you to “give it another go†which is pointless obviously. Avoid at all costs. I want my money back!!!

Smell awful. Work great, but going to have to stop using in my Lay Z Spa as the water smells terrible!

Great

Don’t buy this. the £30 DeepBlue spa/pool starter kit has everything you need including strips that work. What’s the point of selling chlorine tablets and strips if you can’t tell what the water quality is?
