Pool Care Tips

Pool season is here and it’s time to ensure that you have a trusted water treatment solution for your backyard pool.

Exploring the types of pool sanitizer

Keeping your pool looking amazing and safe can be easy, but it requires the regular addition of safe, reliable chlorine products—and there are several options to consider when selecting a chlorine choice for your pool. These options include dry granular products or “tablets,” granular “shock,” or liquid pool chlorine for both shock and daily sanitization. And there’s a big difference between these solutions.

Getting the 411 on pool chlorine

Dry chlorine contains by-products that can build-up and cause real challenges in pool maintenance, which is why liquid chlorine is hands-down the purest, safest, and easiest form of pool chlorine.

Plus, liquid chlorine is faster acting and doesn't leave behind any unwanted by-products that can affect water quality. Plus, only liquid chlorine, such as HASA Sani-Clor®, can deliver that sparkling blue, beautiful water that every pool owner wants for their own backyard pool.

Other benefits of Sani-Clor® liquid

Using liquid chlorine, like Sani-Clor®, helps ensure crystal clear and safe water for swimming. Sani-Clor® keeps cyanuric acid (or CYA) levels under control and doesn’t add calcium to your water. It also delivers the highest available chlorine to your pool—keeping it safer for your family and friends to enjoy.

It’s also simple to use and administer. You can easily introduce this powerful form of chlorine into your pool every day by using a simple liquid chlorine feeder from HASA known as the HASA Liquid Feeder™ or HLF™. The affordable HLF™ is a state-of-the-art daily sanitizer feeder designed to automatically introduce our high-performance liquid chlorine into your pool when your equipment is running with no need for additional electricity.

If you’re reading this, it’s likely because you’re looking to keep your pool as clean as possible and ready for fun all season long. But pool care requires proper and reliable water treatment solutions. And when it comes to pool water, pesky contaminants can come from a variety of sources so it’s important that you’re getting ample and correct sanitization to keep your water safe for your friends and family to enjoy.

Whether it's a windy day blowing debris into the water or lots of swimmers and kids splashing in your pool enjoying a backyard party, it's important to always keep the water clean and safe for swimming. One of the most important things you can do for your pool to keep it consistently clean and clear is to regularly “shock” the water.

What does it mean to “shock” a pool?

Essentially, it's a process where higher amounts of chlorine are added to the water to chemically break down and remove contaminants through oxidation. And while most types of chlorine can do the job, liquid chlorine is the best choice for a variety of reasons.

First, liquid chlorine is safe to use and reacts immediately in the water, making it a powerful and effective choice for shocking the pool. Plus, unlike other forms of chlorine, liquid chlorine doesn't add any unwanted by-products or fillers like additional cyanuric acid (also known as “CYA”) stabilizer or calcium to your water. This makes it the strongest and purest type of chlorine available—and a preferred choice for homeowners, resort managers, and pool service professionals.

For the most beautiful, crystal-clear pools

With its fast-acting formula, liquid pool chlorine will quickly and efficiently take your pool water from dull to crystal clear blue, making it safe and inviting for swimmers of all ages. And if you want to keep your pool water translucent all season long, it's recommended to shock your pool every week—and for this purpose, using HASA Sani-Clor® liquid chlorine is the BEST choice on the market.
