pH Reducer 1.5kg

pH Reducer 1.5kg

The ideal pool and spa pH levels are between 7.2 - 7.6 promoting bather comfort, optimum chemical effciency and protection of pool & spa plant equipment. Test the pH of your pool or spa water and if it is above 7.6, use pH Reducer to lower it. 

pH Reducer Application Instructions 

1. Pre-dissolve the product in a clean plastic container at a maximum rate of 10g of product per 0.2 gallons (1lts) of clean warm water. Stir well to ensure product is fully dissolved. Carefully add the resulting solution to the spa whilst the pump(s) are turned "on", preferably near to the water inlets to aid distribution

2. After a minimum of 30 minutes recheck the pH level and if necessary repeat the treatment until the ideal pH is established.

Note: Multiple treatments may be necessary to achieve the desired pH level.

General Precautions

Dosing:

• Wear eye and face protection and ensure granules are not blown back into your face.
• Never mix with other chemicals including household cleaners as a dangerous reaction may occur. 
• When pre-dissolving always add product to water and not vice versa.

FAQS

What other names is pH Reducer known by?

pH Reducer is also referred to as pH Minus, Dry Acid, or Sodium Bisulfate.

Is it safe to swim in a pool with high pH levels?

A pH of 7 is neutral. Levels above 7 are alkaline, while anything below indicates acidity. Factors like rainfall and the number of swimmers can influence pH. If the pH exceeds 8, it can cause skin irritation or rashes, and a pH below 7 may irritate the eyes. Regularly checking the pH ensures safer and more comfortable swimming.

Where can pH Reducer be used?

pH Reducer is suitable for pools and spas. The 1.5kg size is ideal for above-ground pools, hot tubs, or general pool maintenance.

What else can I do to manage pH levels?

To help maintain pH balance:

• Use a pool cover to reduce evaporation, which can concentrate minerals and increase alkalinity.
• Regularly remove debris like leaves, grass, and organic waste, as they can raise pH levels. A pool cleaner or net can help with this.

Proper water chemistry ensures a better swimming experience and protects your pool’s surfaces and equipment from chemical imbalances. If you need further advice on managing pH levels, feel free to contact our team.
