HTH Floater+ Small Pool Sanitiser 750g

The HTH Floater+ Small Pool Sanitiser 750g is a multi-action, autonomous floating dispenser designed for pools between 10,000 and 30,000 litres. It provides a continuous release of stabilised chlorine, integrated algaecide, and clarifying agents to maintain water hygiene. The adjustable, see-through canister allows for easy monitoring and consistent chemical distribution for up to one month.

Ideal Use and Performance

• • 4-in-1 Maintenance: Simultaneously sanitises water, provides a shock treatment, kills algae, and clarifies cloudy water in a single application.
• • Variable Dosage: Features an adjustable base with multiple settings, allowing users to customise the chemical release rate according to the specific pool volume.
• • UV Stabilisation: The chlorine is stabilised to resist sunlight degradation, making it highly effective for South African above-ground or small in-ground pools.
• • Visual Indicator: The floater is designed to tip onto its side when the internal chemicals are depleted, providing a clear signal for replacement.

Safety Precautions

• • Active Chlorine Safety: Do not enter the pool if the chlorine level is above 3 ppm; use a test kit to verify water balance before swimming.
• • Correct Application: Never open the floater or attempt to refill the canister, as it is a sealed unit designed for single-use disposal.
• • Surface Protection: Ensure the floater remains in the water and does not get stuck against the pool wall or on the steps, as the concentrated chlorine may bleach liners or fibreglass.
• • Storage and Disposal: Store unused floaters in a cool, dry place; once empty, rinse the unit in the pool water before disposing of it in general household waste.

Frequently Asked Questions

• • How do I set it for my pool size? Remove the plastic sleeve and twist the adjustable base to the small (S) or medium (M) setting as indicated on the label for your pool's capacity.
• • Does it work during winter? Yes, it is an excellent low-maintenance solution for winterising your pool, though the chemical release rate will be slower in colder water.
• • Will it affect my pool's pH levels? While it is designed to be relatively neutral, regular testing of pH and Total Alkalinity is still required to maintain a balanced environment.
• • How long does one unit last? In a standard 20,000-litre pool, one 750g unit typically provides effective sanitisation for approximately four weeks.

Clever Hack for pools

• • To prevent your floater from drifting into the skimmer and blocking suction during periods when the pump is off, tie a small length of fishing line to the top of the floater and anchor it to a pool fence or a nearby brick. This keeps it in the centre of the pool, ensuring chemicals continue to disperse evenly without damaging the weir or the pump.
