Swimmer pH Increaser 25kg
Product Overview
As a retailer of hot tub spare parts and maintenance products, I present this professional-grade pH Increaser, designed to safely and effectively raise pool and spa water pH levels. This premium 25kg package provides an economical solution for both routine maintenance and significant pH corrections.
What is pH Increaser?
This granular sodium carbonate (soda ash) product is specifically formulated for aquatic use, providing a reliable method to increase pH levels when they fall below the ideal range. Maintaining proper pH is crucial for sanitizer effectiveness, swimmer comfort, and equipment longevity.
Key Benefits
- Fast-dissolving granular formula
- Quickly raises low pH levels
- Prevents equipment corrosion
- Improves sanitizer efficiency
- Enhances swimmer comfort
- Protects pool surfaces
- Clear, non-clouding formula
Technical Information
This professional-grade pH increaser is composed of high-purity sodium carbonate, specifically processed for swimming pool and spa use. Its granular form ensures quick dissolution and rapid pH adjustment.
Application & Usage
For optimal results:
Standard pH Adjustment:
- Test pH levels before application
- Add 100g per 10,000L to raise pH by 0.2
- Broadcast product over pool surface
- Run circulation for minimum 4 hours
- Retest pH before further additions
Major pH Correction:
- Never add more than 500g per 10,000L at one time
- Allow 4-6 hours between treatments
- Always retest before additional dosing
- Maintain good circulation throughout treatment

- Prevention of scale formation
- Protection of pool surfaces
- Extended equipment life
- Better water clarity
Application Tips
- Always test water before adding
- Add during filter operation
- Distribute evenly over water surface
- Never mix with other chemicals
- Allow full circulation between doses
- Maintain proper total alkalinity
Ideal Pool Parameters
For reference, maintain:
- pH: 7.2-7.8

Always test water chemistry before and after application. Allow sufficient circulation time between treatments.
Pool & Spa Chemical Guide
As a retailer of pool and spa maintenance products, I've created this comprehensive guide to help you understand and maintain proper water chemistry for your pool or spa.
Water Balance Essentials
pH Levels (7.2-7.6)
The cornerstone of water chemistry that affects all other aspects of water treatment:
- Too high: Reduces chlorine effectiveness, causes scaling
- Too low: Equipment corrosion, skin/eye irritation
- Regular testing and adjustment crucial for optimal balance
Chlorine (1-3 ppm)
Primary sanitizer for most pools and spas:
- Free chlorine maintains water safety
- Stabilized chlorine provides longer-lasting protection
- Shock treatments eliminate contaminants and chloramines
Alkalinity (80-120 ppm)
Acts as a buffer for pH levels:
- Prevents rapid pH fluctuations
- Protects against corrosion
- Helps prevent scaling issues
Specialized Treatments
Water Clarifiers
Enhances filtration efficiency:
- Coagulates tiny particles
- Improves water clarity
- Reduces filter strain
Algaecides
Prevents and treats algae growth:
- Regular prevention dosing
- Brush-free formulas available
- Compatible with all sanitizing systems
Stabilizers
Protects chlorine from UV degradation:
- Essential for outdoor pools
- Extends chlorine effectiveness
- Reduces chemical consumption
Maintenance Schedule
Daily Tasks
- Check sanitizer levels
- Run filtration system
- Remove visible debris
Weekly Tasks
- Test complete water chemistry
- Balance pH and alkalinity
- Add maintenance chemicals
Monthly Tasks
- Deep clean filters
- Check stabilizer levels
