How to use

  1. Test pH 7.2-7.6 and free chlorine in band before adding tablet.
  2. Place 1 tablet per 30-40 m³ in the skimmer basket or pump strainer.
  3. Run filtration on normal cycle for 7 days.
  4. Replace tablet weekly; check skimmer flow each time.
  5. Backwash sand filter or rinse cartridge fortnightly.
  6. Switch to liquid clarifier if water haze appears mid-week.

Dosing guide

Steady weekly feed. Use alongside, not instead of, weekly chlorine and pH testing. Replace tablet on the same day each week.

How it works

Aluminium sulphate compressed into 50 g slow-release clarifier tablets, intended for skimmer basket or pump strainer feed. 36 tablets per tub.

Tablet erodes under skimmer flow, releasing aluminium sulphate continuously into circulation. The Al³⁺ ions neutralise the negative surface charge on suspended fines so they coalesce into filter-catchable clusters.

Liquid clarifier is reactive; tablets are preventive. A continuous low dose stops haze forming in the first place, which is far easier than chasing cloudy water once it appears.

Frequently asked questions

How long does one tablet last?

5-7 days under normal skimmer flow.

Where do I put the tablet?

Skimmer basket or pump strainer; never broadcast loose into the pool.

How many for my pool?

1 tablet per 30-40 m³ per week. Larger pools dose 2-3 tablets weekly.

Pack sizes?

Single 36-tablet tub, enough for roughly a full UK swim season at 1 tablet per skimmer per week.

Liquid or tablets?

Liquid for haze recovery; tablets for routine prevention. Use both as the season demands.

Will it work with my sand filter?

Yes. Particularly useful on sand filters because their 20-micron cut-off lets fines through.

What is the active ingredient?

Aluminium sulphate coagulant in 50 g slow-release tablets.

Does it consume chlorine?

No. Aluminium sulphate is a coagulant; chlorine bank is unaffected.

How much aluminium sulphate per tablet?

Roughly 40 g of aluminium sulphate per 50 g tablet, balance is binder and slow-release matrix.

Tablet not dissolving?

Check skimmer flow and pump runtime; cold water also slows release.

Cloud not clearing?

Add a one-shot liquid dose; tablets prevent rather than cure heavy haze.

Tablets vs liquid clarifier?

Tablets for set-and-forget weekly cover; liquid for emergency haze recovery. Different jobs.

Tablets vs flocculant?

Tablets keep particles in circulation for filter capture; flocculant drops them to the floor for vacuuming. Tablets are routine, floc is emergency.
