BioGuard® balancers are essential to an effective pool program. Maintenance will be easier and you can prevent routine pool care issues from growing into major problems.

When your pool water is balanced, there is the proper ratio of mineral content and pH. Balanced water prevents pool water from being corrosive or scale-forming. In order to keep your water balanced, you may need to use one or more of the products in BioGuard's line of balancers. They include products that control scale, prevent metallic stains, adjust the pH and total alkalinity, and correct mineral imbalances.

The benefits of balanced water include:
• Reducing maintenance costs and chlorinating product consumption
• Preventing equipment corrosion, etching of plaster, and wrinkling of liners
• Preventing eye irritation due to low pH
• Avoiding pH bounce due to rain, swimmer load, and other chemical application
• Preventing serious damage that scaling can cause to pool surfaces and equipment
• Increasing swimmer comfort
• Allowing chlorine residual to work most efficiently

The water will remain in balance if kept inside the following ranges.

You should take a water sample to your BioGuard Authorized Dealer for professional analysis. We recommend doing this before spring opening, mid-season, and before closing in the off-season. This will help you are maintain the water at the proper levels. You can get a container from your BioGuard professional or use a clean container from home.

If a problem does occur, your BioGuard Authorized Dealer will suggest the right BioGuard balancers so your water is balanced.
