Stabilized chlorine
|
Stabilized chlorine is chlorine that releases a stabilizer (cyanuric acid). This stabilizer protects the chlorine from the destructive action of the ultraviolet radiation in sunlight. |

PHMB |
PHMB is an extremely effective disinfectant that eliminates problems caused by the use of chlorine (variation in the stabilization level, eye or skin irritation, etc.). However, PHMB does not oxidize your water and it is therefore necessary to add an oxidizer (Baquacil shock). |

Active oxygen |
As with the other chlorine-free disinfectants, treatment with active oxygen provides improved bather comfort. However, its action has a tendency to deteriorate over time, especially where the water temperature is high. |
