Why Calcium Hardness Matters
When your pool water is too soft (low in calcium), it becomes aggressive—meaning it will draw minerals from your pool surface or equipment to balance itself. This leads to pitting, etching, and corrosion over time. Pure Pool Cal-Up prevents this by safely raising calcium levels, keeping your pool water balanced and non-destructive.
How It Works
Pure Pool Cal-Up is a calcium chloride-based compound that dissolves rapidly in water, boosting total hardness levels in just a few hours. By increasing calcium levels to the ideal range (between 200–400 ppm), it helps create stable water that won’t damage your surfaces, fixtures, or filters.
Dosage Guide
-
To raise hardness by 10 ppm: Add 100g per 10,000 litres of water
-
Typical application: 1–2kg for standard pools with low calcium levels
-
Always test water hardness before dosing, and adjust as needed
-
Broadcast directly into the deep end or pre-dissolve in a bucket before adding
Pro Tip: Add Cal-Up while the pump is running to ensure even distribution and faster dissolving.
Safe for All Pool Types
Cal-Up is safe to use in concrete, pebblecrete, fiberglass, and vinyl-lined pools. It's especially important for concrete and tiled pools, where low calcium can cause visible surface damage. Compatible with all filtration systems when used as directed.
So Simple to Use
Just measure the required amount, broadcast it directly into the pool, or pre-dissolve in a bucket of water for a gentler application. With fast-acting, low-dust granules, there’s no mess—just balanced, protected water in no time.
