Pool Chlorine Powder

Pool chlorine powder

Pool chlorine powder is one of the most effective treatments for keeping pool water clean, crystal clear, and free from bacteria, algae, and microorganisms. Thanks to its fast dissolution and high concentration, it is ideal for both regular maintenance and shock treatments.

At Mercapool, you will find different formats of granular and powder chlorine adapted to all types of pools and disinfection needs.

What is chlorine powder?

Chlorine powder, also known as granular chlorine, is a fast-acting chemical treatment used to disinfect swimming pool water.

Its main advantage is the speed at which it works, allowing quick recovery of cloudy water, algae problems, or chemical imbalances.

Advantages of pool chlorine powder

• Fast dissolution: acts quickly in the water.
• Powerful disinfection: eliminates bacteria and microorganisms.
• Ideal for shock treatments: restores green or cloudy pool water.
• Compatible with all pool types: above-ground pools, in-ground pools, and spas.
• Easy application: simple to dose and use.

When should chlorine powder be used?

Granular chlorine is especially recommended in the following situations:

• Pool start-up at the beginning of the season.
• Shock treatments.
• Recovery of green or cloudy water.
• After heavy rain or intensive pool use.
• Regular water maintenance.

How to properly apply chlorine powder

1. Check the pool water pH level beforehand.
2. Dilute the recommended amount of chlorine in a container with water.
