PoolBrite Month Mate Floater 1.5kg

The PoolBrite Month Mate Floater 1.5kg is a 5-in-1 multi-action swimming pool sanitiser designed to maintain hygienic water conditions in pools up to 50,000 litres. This slow-release dispenser integrates a bactericide, algaecide, and clarifier into a single monthly unit, ensuring a consistent 1–3ppm chlorine residual while protecting against UV degradation and mineral staining.

Product Specifications and Features

• • 5-in-1 Multi-Action Chemistry: Operates simultaneously as a sanitiser, algae preventer, water clarifier, filter enhancer, and sunlight protector for comprehensive water care.
• • Extended 30-Day Cycle: Formulated to provide continuous water treatment for one month, reducing the need for frequent manual chemical adjustments and testing.
• • Adjustable Flow Rate: Features a customisable aperture base, allowing you to regulate the chlorine output according to your specific pool volume and swimmer load.
• • pH-Neutral Formulation: Designed to provide effective sanitisation without raising the pool’s pH levels, which helps lower overall operating costs by reducing acid demand.
• • Stain and Scale Inhibition: Includes active agents that prevent mineral precipitates from staining pool surfaces, ensuring your marbelite or liner remains pristine.
• • High-Strength Stabilised Chlorine: Contains UV-protected chlorine that resists sunlight evaporation, making it highly efficient for the intense South African summer sun.

Ideal Use Cases

• • Standard Residential Pools: The optimal month mate floater solution for pools up to 50,000L, providing a safe and sparkling environment for family swimming.
• • Hassle-Free Maintenance: Perfect for busy homeowners who want a "set-and-forget" routine that eliminates the daily task of handling granular chlorine.
• • Water Clarity Restoration: Highly effective as a filter enhancer, helping to coagulate fine debris so your sand or cartridge filter can trap impurities more efficiently.
• • Saltwater System Backup: Can be used as a supplementary sanitiser for saltwater pools during periods of heavy rain or high swimmer loads to prevent algae outbreaks.

Safety and Storage Precautions

• • Swimmer Protection: Always remove the floater from the water during swimming sessions and place it in a plastic container away from the pool edge to avoid skin contact.
• • Surface Integrity: Do not allow the unit to become trapped in one spot or rest against the pool wall, as concentrated chemical release may cause bleaching or pitting.
• • Secure Storage: Store spare units in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area; ensure they are kept upright and away from reactive chemicals like acids or detergents.
• • Safe Handling: Do not attempt to open the floater housing or pierce the internal compartments; wash hands thoroughly after touching the dispenser.

Frequently Asked Questions

• • How do I set the floater for my pool? Adjust the base to the small, medium, or large setting based on your pool's capacity; use the largest setting for pools near 50,000L.
• • Will it cloud my pool water? No, the Month Mate is designed to dissolve cleanly without residue, leaving your water crystal clear and free of cloudy precipitates.
• • Is it safe for vinyl liners? Yes, because the chemicals are diluted as they leave the floater, it is safe for all pool surfaces, including vinyl, fibreglass, and concrete.

Clever Hack: The "Morning-After" Check

• • To ensure your Month Mate Floater is always working at peak efficiency, give it a gentle shake every Saturday morning. Occasionally, air bubbles can get trapped in the unit or the vents can become slightly clogged with debris; a quick "floater shake" ensures the water flows freely through the vents, maintaining that perfect 1–3ppm chlorine level all month long!
