SANITIZERS
By continually killing bacteria, a sanitizer provides swimmer protection from disease causing organisms. This important role makes the sanitizer the most critical product in pool care. That's why BioGuard® has made sanitizing the first step in pool care systems.
Smart Sticks allow most pool owners to go to their pool once a week. Smart Sticks last twice as long as ordinary sticks or pucks. They dissolve evenly because they are hydraulically compressed. Available in a 6.75kg container.
Stingy Sticks - BioGuard® Stingy Sticks® are a long lasting, economic sanitizer that dissolves evenly for consistent chlorination.
TabGuard Tablets - BioGuard® Tabgard® Tablets are long lasting chlorine tabs that are slow dissolving for consistent chlorination.

OXIDIZERS
Oxidizing is the second step in BioGuard's® 15 Minute Work Week system. Oxidizers "shock" the water and chemically destroy the organic contamination introduced by bathers and the environment. Shocking keeps the water clear and sparkling.
Smart Shock is a 6 in 1 pool Shock (Oxidizer). Swim just 15 minutes after use! Available in 400gr bags or in boxes of 12 bags.

Clear, Perfect Water with HALF the work!
We are not exaggerating when we say your spring opening will be hassle-free and take less time. For years, homeowners and commercial service companies have reported dramatic results -- especially with mesh covers.This powerful formula prevents winter waterline ring, preserves pool liners and finishes, and reduces staining and the need for acid washing.
Why do you need to use Pool Magic in the spring and fall?
The reasons are simple really... The fall or closing application of Pool Magic will provide a residual level of enzymes in your water over the off-season, which prevents water line rings etc, from forming. When you fill your pool in the spring this dilutes the concentration, so the additional spring or opening dose is necessary for fresh fill water.
Try it once, and we guarantee you will never go another season without it!
Spray on and rinse off! Works great on all covers.
