Achieving Perfect Water: A Simple Guide

Maintaining your pool or spa comes down to a simple, repeatable routine. Understanding this process helps you choose the right products every time.

Test Your Water

Regular testing is the first and most critical step to a healthy pool. It removes the guesswork and tells you exactly what your water needs to be safe and balanced. Explore our range of easy-to-use Test Strips, Liquid Kits, and Digital Testers to get accurate readings in minutes.  

Sanitise & Protect

Sanitisers are essential for eliminating harmful bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, preventing algae growth, and keeping your water hygienic. We offer a complete selection of Chlorine, Bromine, and Chlorine-Free options to keep your pool or spa water safe for everyone.  

Balance the Chemistry

Proper water chemistry not only ensures swimmer comfort by preventing skin and eye irritation but also protects your valuable pool surfaces and equipment from corrosion and scale buildup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to a few common questions to help you select the right products. For a more detailed list, please visit our comprehensive guide.

Q: What’s the difference between pool and spa sanitiser?

A: While they serve the same purpose, spa sanitisers are often formulated differently. Spas operate at higher temperatures, so chemicals like bromine, which remain stable in hot water, are common. Spa chlorine is typically a fast-dissolving granular type (dichlor) suited for smaller water volumes. In contrast, pools often use slow-dissolving stabilised chlorine tablets, which are not suitable for spas. Always use a product specifically labelled for either pool or spa use.  

Q: Which type of test kit is right for me (strips vs. liquid)?

A: It depends on your need for speed versus precision. Test Strips are the fastest and easiest method, perfect for quick daily or weekly checks to ensure levels are in range. Liquid Reagent Kits (drop kits) offer higher accuracy and are preferred by many pool professionals for more precise weekly balancing, as they make it easier to detect small changes in water chemistry.  

Q: I have a saltwater pool. Do I still need chemicals? 

A: Yes. A saltwater pool is a chlorine pool; it simply uses a salt chlorinator to generate its own chlorine from salt. You will still need to regularly test and balance your water's pH, total alkalinity, and calcium hardness. Saltwater pools naturally experience a rising pH, so adding a pH reducer (acid) is a common requirement. You may also need to add stabiliser and occasionally "shock" the pool if the chlorinator cannot keep up with demand.
