PoolBrite Month Mate Xtra Blue Shock Pool Treatment 450g

PoolBrite Month Mate Xtra Blue Shock Pool Treatment 450g is a concentrated, fast-acting oxidiser designed to restore water clarity and sanitisation in residential swimming pools.

This multi-action granular formula effectively eliminates bacteria and algae while destroying organic contaminants, ensuring a sparkling blue appearance and reducing common irritants that cause eye and skin discomfort for swimmers.

Product Specifications and Features

• • Six In One multi-action formula functions as a sanitiser, algae preventer, water clarifier, filter enhancer, and sunlight protector in a single dose.
• • Fast-dissolving Granules ensure immediate chemical activation upon contact with the water, allowing for a quick return to swimming within fifteen minutes of application.
• • Non Staining Blue Formulation enhances the natural aesthetic of the water without leaving behind chalky residue or causing discolouration on pool linings.
• • PH Neutral Composition means that the product does not significantly alter the water balance, reducing the need for corrective chemicals like hydrochloric acid.

Ideal Use and Application

• • Routine Weekly Maintenance involves adding one 450g sachet for every fifty thousand litres of water after backwashing and rinsing the filter.
• • Post Storm Recovery is recommended to neutralise the high levels of nitrogen and organic debris often introduced by heavy South African summer rains.
• • Swimmer Load Management suggests using an additional dose after large pool parties or heavy usage to keep the water hygienic and clear.

Safety and Storage Precautions

• • Strong Oxidising Agent warning means the product should never be mixed with other chemicals, particularly different types of chlorine or acids, to prevent fire.
• • Direct Application requires pouring the granules around the edges of the pool with the pump running; for vinyl pools, brush immediately to ensure full dissolution.
• • Secure Storage necessitates keeping the sachet in a cool, dry place away from children, animals, and combustible materials like oils or fuels.

Frequently Asked Questions

• • When can I swim after use? You can typically resume swimming fifteen minutes after application, provided the pump has circulated the product throughout the pool.
• • Does this replace my monthly floater? No, this is a shock treatment designed to supplement your primary sanitiser; it should be used alongside a Month Mate Super Plus Floater.
• • Will it work on cloudy water? Yes, the clarifying agents in the Xtra Blue formula bind small particles together, allowing the filter to remove them more effectively.
• • Quick Hack: For a quick and effective maintenance boost, try the "Filter-First" method.
• • Before adding your PoolBrite Month Mate Xtra Blue Shock, always backwash and rinse your filter.
• • By clearing out trapped debris first, you ensure the shock treatment focuses entirely on neutralising new bacteria and algae in the water rather than fighting old waste sitting in the sand.
• • This simple step maximises the chemical’s efficiency and keeps your pool water blue for longer between doses.
