Shock Treatment Chemicals will breakdown chloramines and clear green pools

There are other impurities in pool water in addition to bacteria, algae and viruses. They are called chloramines. Although not a direct health risk, they need to be broken down so as to maintain water that is of a high quality which is pleasant to bathe in.

High chloramine levels are responsible for eye-sting and the unpleasant, stale chlorine smell that many people associate with old-fashioned swimming baths.

In order to eliminate chloramines it is necessary to use a shock treatment to super chlorinate the pool with a high dose of free chlorine.

In addition at some stage, chlorine levels may have fallen, or chlorine has become ineffective allowing algae to become established in the water. By utilising a shock treatment, it will in fact kill the algae.
