PH Minus

Clearwater® 1.5kg pH Minus is a simple and effective way to keep the pH levels of a pool or hot tub within the recommended boundaries, reducing alkalinity and producing a more comfortable swimming environment. It’s basically the best way to avoid an influx of itchy skin or eyes that sting and look like cherries.

It’s scientifically proven that swimming pool pH levels should be between 7.2 and 7.6 (using Clearwater® Dip Test Strips). When water pH levels clamber above 7.6 alkalinity increases and pH treatment is required. Anything and everything that enters a hot tub or pool contains its own pH level which, quite naturally, alters the pH balance of a pool. Contaminants can include falling leaves, trespassing animals, dead skin and even faeces!

Using the pH reducer could’t be easier. Once the recommended amount has been dissolved in warm water the solution is added to the hot tub or pool, reducing high pH water to a more suitable level. After eight hours pH levels should be checked again and decreased or increased until they fall within the bracket of 7.2 to 7.6. If the pH level has fallen below 7.2 you should use Clearwater® pH Plus, to increase it to the correct level.

As with all chemical products, instructions and warnings should be carefully followed and heeded. Thankfully Clearwater® 1.5kg pH Minus is labelled with all of the necessary precautions and warnings.
