The bare-essentials chlorine kit for a first fill. It boxes together the four core products a new hot tub or spa pool owner needs on day one: a chlorine sanitiser to keep the water safe, plus balancers for pH and total alkalinity, and Palintest 3-in-1 strips so you dose to a reading rather than a guess.
£28.95
Four 500g bottles (Chlorine Granules, pH Plus, pH & Alkalinity Reducer, Total Alkalinity Increaser) plus a tub of Palintest 3-in-1 test strips.
Basic is the bare essentials for a first fill. Step up to Standard for foam control, Premium for a full care regime, or Premium Plus for deep-clean flush and cartridge care.
On a typical home hot tub the 500g bottles cover the first fill and the early weeks; heavier use gets through them faster. Top up with full-size refills after.
Chlorine acts fast and is easy to top up, so it suits owners happy to test regularly. Bromine is steadier at spa temperatures. Pick the sanitiser you plan to run; there is a matching Basic Bromine kit.
Yes. Every product in the kit is sold on its own, so you can refill just the ones you use most once the kit runs down.
Yes, 500g of chlorine granules. Balancers and test strips are in the box too.
The kit usually works out cheaper than the four bottles and strips bought individually, and it saves you deciding what you need.
A typical home hot tub of 1,000 to 3,000 litres. Larger swim spas need more chemical, so scale up with full-size products.
Yes. The 3-in-1 strips read free chlorine, pH and total alkalinity.
Check balance first, then add a clarifier such as Sparkle, which is included in the Premium kit.
That points to combined chlorine; a non-chlorine shock (in the Premium kit) clears it.
