AQUA-CLEAR – Chlorine-Free Pool & Spa Treatment

Engineered Oxygen-Based Water Treatment System for Swimming Pools & Spas

Advanced Chlorine-Free Pool Sanitizer for Safe, Clear & Healthy Water

AQUA-CLEAR is an advanced oxygen-based, chlorine-free pool treatment system engineered to maintain crystal-clear, hygienic swimming pool and spa water without the use of traditional chlorine or halogen-based sanitizers.

Developed as an environmentally responsible alternative to conventional chlorine treatment programmes, AQUA-CLEAR utilizes advanced oxidation chemistry to help maintain water clarity, reduce microbiological contamination and provide a more comfortable swimming experience while minimizing many of the undesirable effects commonly associated with chlorine-treated water.

Suitable for residential, commercial and institutional swimming pools and spas, AQUA-CLEAR offers a modern approach to water quality management that supports both swimmer comfort and long-term asset preservation.

The Water Treatment Challenge

Maintaining swimming pool water is about far more than achieving clear water.

Pool water is continually subjected to contamination from bathers, airborne debris, organic matter, microorganisms and environmental pollutants. Without effective treatment, these contaminants can promote algae growth, reduce water clarity and compromise water hygiene.

Traditional chlorine treatment programmes have long been the industry standard. While effective, chlorine can also introduce several well-known challenges, including:

• Eye and skin irritation.
• Strong chemical odours.
• Fading of swimwear.
• Dry hair and skin.
• Formation of chlorinated disinfection by-products under certain operating conditions.
• Increased chemical exposure for regular swimmers.

Modern water treatment increasingly focuses on achieving effective sanitization while reducing unnecessary chemical loading and improving the overall swimming experience.

Engineering Solution

AQUA-CLEAR has been developed as an engineered, oxygen-based water treatment system, that assists in maintaining hygienic swimming conditions without relying on free chlorine as the primary sanitizing agent.

The proprietary formulation consists of a carefully balanced blend of inorganic mineral salts that work together to:

1. Oxidize organic contaminants.
2. Assist in the control of bacteria, viruses and fungi.
3. Support algae control.
4. Promote improved water clarity through flocculation.
5. Maintain clean, sparkling water with simplified maintenance routines.

The free-flowing granular formulation dissolves rapidly and distributes evenly throughout the pool water, making routine application straightforward and efficient.

System Technology

The AQUA-CLEAR water treatment system combines several complementary treatment functions within a single product.

These include:

• Advanced oxygen-based oxidation.
• Water disinfection.
• Mineral-based flocculation.
• Algae control.
• Long-lasting treatment performance.
• Excellent stability under normal outdoor operating conditions.

Unlike conventional chlorine treatment programmes, AQUA-CLEAR does not rely on chlorination reactions that may contribute to the formation of chlorinated disinfection by-products such as trihalomethanes (THMs) under typical operating conditions.

Performance Benefits

When used as directed, AQUA-CLEAR provides:

1. Chlorine-free pool water treatment.
2. Clear, sparkling water.
3. Reduced chemical odour.
4. Improved swimmer comfort.
5. No chlorine-related eye irritation.
6. Reduced drying of skin and hair.
7. Fast dissolving granular formulation.
8. Easy routine maintenance.
9. Suitable for swimming pools and spas.
10. Environmentally responsible water treatment.

Many users describe the swimming experience as feeling closer to natural fresh water than conventionally chlorinated pools.

Asset Preservation Benefits

Water treatment does not only influence swimmer comfort—it also contributes to the long-term condition of pool infrastructure.

By reducing reliance on traditional chlorination programmes, AQUA-CLEAR can help minimize chemical exposure to many common pool components, including:

• Decorative finishes.
• Pool coatings.
• Pumps and filtration equipment.
• Stainless steel fittings.
• Rubber seals and gaskets.
• Pool covers and accessories.

This engineering philosophy supports the broader objective of extending the operational life of aquatic infrastructure while maintaining excellent water quality.

Typical Applications

AQUA-CLEAR is suitable for:

• Residential swimming pools.
• Commercial swimming pools.
• Hotels and resorts.
• Guest houses.
• Schools.
• Health clubs and gyms.
• Spa pools.
• Therapy pools.
• Recreational water features.

Operating Guidelines

For optimum performance:

1. Backwash the filtration system.
2. Adjust pool pH to between 7.4 and 7.6.
3. Add AQUA-CLEAR slowly into the pool weir while the circulation pump is operating.
4. Allow the system to circulate thoroughly.

For routine maintenance:

1. Apply approximately two treatments per month, or once a week( obtaining more sparkle ), under normal operating conditions.
2. Additional treatments may be introduced during periods of high bather load, elevated temperatures or where enhanced water sparkle is desired.

Lower-use pools may require less frequent dosing.

Recommended Dosage

Standard Maintenance

600 g per 50,000 litres of pool water.

or

120 g per 10,000 litres of water.

Actual dosage may vary depending on environmental conditions, water quality and bather load.

Why Choose AQUA-CLEAR ?

AQUA-CLEAR has been engineered for pool owners seeking an effective alternative to conventional chlorine treatment.

The system combines oxygen-based oxidation, water clarification and algae control into a simple maintenance programme that delivers excellent water quality while providing a noticeably more comfortable swimming environment.

Rather than simply treating pool water, AQUA-CLEAR forms part of an integrated water management philosophy focused on swimmer wellbeing, operational simplicity and long-term asset preservation.
