BioGuard Balance Pak

This product is an alkalinity increaser designed to stabilize your pool's total alkalinity. By keeping these levels in the correct range, it prevents rapid pH fluctuations, often called 'pH bounce,' which can make pool water uncomfortable and corrosive.

When total alkalinity is too low, water becomes acidic, which can corrode pool surfaces, ladders, and heater components. By maintaining proper alkalinity, Balance Pak helps neutralize the water and prevents this long-term damage.

Yes, it comes in a powder form that is designed to dissolve quickly. You simply broadcast the recommended amount over the surface of the water with the pump running to ensure it mixes thoroughly.

You should test your alkalinity levels weekly using a test kit or strips. Add Balance Pak only when your test results indicate that your total alkalinity has dropped below the recommended range for your specific pool type.

Yes, BioGuard Balance Pak is compatible with all types of swimming pools, including saltwater systems. It functions the same way regardless of the sanitization method you are using.
