Ask the Expert: It’s great – I’m using less chlorine, but is my pool staying clean?

Great news – with Pool FROG^®, your pool is staying cleaner! You’re using up to 50% less chlorine than standard chlorine or salt systems*, but even better, you’re killing bacteria 2 ways – instead of only 1.

Pool FROG Kills Bacteria 2 ways

Pool FROG uses Fresh Mineral Water^®∞, which works in combination with chlorine to kill bacteria, so your pool is cleaner.

Pool FROG uses minerals that are EPA registered as sanitizers. They work in combination with a low level of chlorine to kill bacteria, so your pool is cleaner – we call this Fresh Mineral Water∞.

OTHER chlorine or salt systems require between 1.0 to 3.0 ppm of chlorine to maintain a clean pool. Because Pool FROG uses fresh minerals to help kill bacteria, you use less chlorine – down to only 0.5 to 1.0 ppm chlorine.

Higher chlorine levels also lead to more Cyanuric Acid buildup, itchiness, red eyes and that “pool smell”.

Using FROG minerals slows that buildup while helping to maintain the pH and condition the water for softness.

This is why it’s essential to test your water with FROG Test Strips. They give you an accurate reading of:

• Free Chlorine
• Total Alkalinity
• pH
• Total Hardness

Other test strips will give you different readings that can be confusing because they show the ideal chlorine range as much higher than you need when using FROG. With FROG Test Strips you always know the ideal free chlorine range for Pool FROG.

 

* Compared to the minimum EPA recommended chlorine level of 1.0 ppm for a stabilized swimming pool.
