Setting up your pool correctly at the start of each season or after heavy dilution is one of the keys to providing comfortable bathing conditions for you and your family.
You will also spend less time on maintenance and achieve more economical running costs. If you would like the water balance of your pool tested, take a 1 litre water sample to your BioGuard Dealer.
The sample will be checked for:
pH
,
Total Alkalinity
,
Calcium Hardness
,
Cyanuric Acid
,
Free and Total Chlorine
or
Bromine
and
Total Dissolved Solids
amongst other properties. Once the water has been analysed, BioGuard has the products to rectify any problems found, simply and effectively. start of season treatments
BioGuard Stabiliser In outdoor pools, chlorine is drawn out of the water by the sun, making it more difficult to maintain the ideal level. This waste of chlorine costs you not only time in having to make more trips to the pool to dose with chlorine, but also money because extra chlorine is being used.
BioGuard Stabiliser is nly added to the pool once at the start of the season and will reduce the amount of chlorine lost to sunlight.

BioGuard Balance Pak 100 BioGuard Balance Pak 100 is used to raise Total Alkalinity to the ideal level (refer to the Ideal Pool Readings section). Using Balance Pak 100 to maintain the correct Total Alkalinity will help to keep a more stable pH level and lead to a less problematic pool long term.
BioGuard Balance Pak 200 BioGuard Balance Pak 200 is used to raise the pH when the level drops below 7.4. For pools, the ideal level is 7.5 which, being slightly alkaline, protects the pool finish and equipment from corrosion. The most comfortable bathing conditions are also achieved at this level.
BioGuard Balance Pak 300 Low Calcium Hardness levels can damage the pool shell finish and plant room equipment. Balance Pak 300 will raise Calcium Hardness to acceptable levels (refer to the Ideal Pool Readings section) therefore protecting your investment. When Calcium Hardness levels are high, please refer to BioGuard Stain & Scale Inhibitor.

BioGuard Lo ‘n’ Slo can also be used to lower Total Alkalinity where levels are above the ideal reading. If lowering Total Alkalinity, please seek advice from your BioGuard Dealer BioGuard Stain & Scale Inhibitor Metal staining or scale formation can be unsightly on pool surfaces, but can be avoided by using BioGuard Stain & Scale Inhibitor.
