BioGuard Tabs

Yes, these tablets are designed to be used in skimmers, as well as automatic chlorinators or floating dispensers. If using a skimmer, ensure your pump is running to allow the water to circulate the chlorine properly.

The stabilized formula includes cyanuric acid, which protects the chlorine from being broken down by the sun's UV rays. This allows the chlorine to remain active in your pool water for longer periods compared to unstabilized options.

The dosage is generally 1-2 ounces per 10,000 gallons of water per week. Because tablet dissolution rates vary based on water flow and temperature, you should test your water regularly to maintain a chlorine level between 1-4 ppm.

These tablets are suitable for most standard pool systems. However, always check your specific chlorinator or skimmer manufacturer's guidelines to ensure 3-inch tablets are the correct size for your equipment.

Like most trichlor-based sanitizers, these tablets are acidic and will gradually lower your pool's pH and total alkalinity over time. You should monitor your water chemistry weekly and use a pH increaser or alkalinity booster as needed to keep levels balanced.
