Crystal-Clear Solutions: 2023 Chemicals & Sanitization Product Focus

Silk Balance Plus

In order to provide customers with fond, safe memories while enjoying their pools and spas, proper water balance and maintenance are essential. The following products were engineered by top industry manufacturers to ensure crystal-clear solutions for safe water chemistry year-round.

 

 


 

 

Lanxess
With the power of Oxone shock oxidizer, customers can enjoy healthy, safe and swim-ready water in just 15 minutes after application — all with an oxidizing shock that is easy to use. Oxone monopersulfate compound delivers all the oxidizing power of chlorine shocks without raising the chlorine concentration. By using the power of active oxygen to remove organic contaminants, pool and spa water quality is restored without forming dangerous chlorinated by-products. With regular use of products containing Oxone weekly oxidizer, chloramines are minimized, there is no chlorinated smell, no eye or skin irritation, and swimsuits won't fade.
