Dazzle Stabilizer

Why:

• Dazzle Stabilizer prevents chlorine loss to the ultraviolet rays of the sun
• Without stabilizer, it would be very difficult to maintain a chlorine residual on a bright sunny day without increasing the amount used significantly (more than 6 times as much)
• Stabilizer is also proven to slow the rate of degradation of vinyl liners, allowing them an increased life span in pools 
• The ideal level for stabilizer in a chlorinated, outdoor swimming pool is 30 – 40 ppm
• Once a stabilizer level reaches approx. 30 ppm, no more benefit can be achieved by adding more stabilizer
• There is plenty of confusion surrounding elevated stabilizer levels
  • Once levels reach 100 ppm, it is recommended that the water be diluted with fresh water to lower to <100 ppm
  • There is no effective way to lower stabilizer levels other than to drain water and refill with water that has no stabilizer present (dilution)  

When:

• Dazzle Stabilizer should be used any time the stabilizer level is less than 20 ppm
• When stabilized chlorines are used regularly, the stabilizer level is unlikely to ever require topping up
• When unstabilized chlorines are used, or the pool is a salt pool, periodic top-ups are likely to be required based on the amount of water lost to backwashing, draining and splash-out

How Much:

• 100 grams per 10,000 litres raises stabilizer levels 10 ppm
• In a freshly-filled swimming pool, 300 grams per 10,000 litres will achieve the ideal starting level of 30 ppm 

How: 

• The best application method for Dazzle Stabilizer is as follows;
  • Backwash or clean the filter
  • Mix the required amount of Dazzle Stabilizer into a slurry in a pail of pool water
    • Do not wait for the product to dissolve – it won’t
  • Slowly pour the slurry into a clean skimmer
  • Run the pump continuously for the next 48 hours while the product dissolves from within the filter
  • Do not backwash or clean the filter for next 48 hours
• Alternatively, the required amount of product can be poured into a skimmer sock, nylon or other flow-through bag and placed in the skimmer basket
  • Do not discard until all the product has dissolved
  • This could take 36 – 72 hours
