Pool Shock

PoolGear now offers you more choices of pool shock than ever before. A good pool shock used regularly will keep your pool clean, healthy and free of "chloramines".  Chlorine combined with oils and swimmers' wastes form chloramines, which reduce the effectiveness of your chlorine.  Chloramines emit a very strong odor and cause your eyes to burn. So if you're smelling a strong chlorine odor in your pool, it might suggest that there is too little free available chlorine.

A weekly dose of a good pool shock will raise the free available chlorine level and eliminate chloramines, allowing your pool to do the job it's supposed to do...sanitize!  Also use pool shock after heavy pool use, heavy rains, or excessive heat.
