What is Oxidising and Why is it Important?
Oxidising is a crucial part of pool and spa maintenance. While sanitiser such as chlorine or bromine kills bacteria and viruses, oxidisers break down organic waste like body oils, perspiration, cosmetics, and other contaminants that build up in the water. Without regular oxidation, your pool or spa water can become cloudy, develop unpleasant odours, and cause irritation to swimmers.
Oxidising with Bioguard Lite
Bioguard Lite is a non-chlorine oxidiser designed to work alongside your regular sanitiser. It helps remove unwanted waste and restores water clarity without raising chlorine levels too high. This makes it ideal for pools and spas where you want sparkling, fresh water without strong chemical smells.

Why Spas and Swim Spas Need Extra Protection
Spas and swim spas are smaller bodies of water compared to pools, which means contaminants build up faster. With higher temperatures and heavier bather loads, spas require more frequent oxidation to keep water safe and comfortable. Regular oxidation prevents cloudy water, foaming, and the strong odours often associated with poorly maintained spas.

For spa owners looking for simplicity, Bioguard Armour is the perfect choice. It combines both a sanitiser and an oxidiser in one product, giving your spa water a powerful clean in a single treatment. This means you save time while ensuring your water remains crystal clear, safe, and inviting.
