Swimmer Floc Granules 2kg (Aluminium Sulphate) – Pack of 6
Product Overview
As a retailer of hot tub spare parts, I offer these professional-grade flocculation granules designed to quickly clear cloudy water in hot tubs and spas. Each 2kg container of premium aluminium sulphate granules provides powerful water clarification, with this convenient pack of six offering excellent value for maintenance needs.
What Are Floc Granules?
Flocculation granules work by clumping together microscopic particles that cause cloudy water into larger particles that can be easily filtered out or vacuumed from the bottom of your hot tub. This aluminium sulphate-based formula is highly effective at treating water clarity issues that regular filtration can’t resolve.
Key Benefits
- Rapidly clears cloudy or dull-looking water
- Creates larger particles that are easily filtered out
- Works with existing filtration system
- Fast-acting formula shows results within hours
- Helps reduce filter strain
- Ideal for post-storm water clarity issues
- Perfect for seasonal startups
- Professional-grade treatment strength
How It Works
These specialized granules operate through a three-stage process:
- Coagulation: The aluminium sulphate causes tiny particles to become unstable
- Flocculation: Destabilized particles combine into larger, filterable clumps
- Precipitation: Larger particles either sink to the bottom or get caught in the filter
