Details

Chlorine Reducer for hot tubs is a specialised chemical solution designed to safely lower the chlorine levels in your spa or hot tub. Maintaining the correct chlorine level is crucial for water sanitation, but sometimes the chlorine levels can become too high due to overuse of sanitiSers or improper chemical management. Chlorine Reducer helps bring those levels back into the ideal range, ensuring that your hot tub water remains safe, comfortable, and irritation-free.

Product Benefits:

  • Prevents Skin and Eye Irritation: High chlorine levels can lead to irritation of the skin and eyes for bathers. A chlorine reducer helps maintain comfortable and safe water conditions, reducing the risk of discomfort during your soak.

  • Restores Water Balance: Excess chlorine can throw off your water’s chemical balance, affecting pH, total alkalinity, and overall water quality. Using a chlorine reducer brings chlorine back into the ideal range (typically between 1–3 ppm) to ensure water remains clean, clear, and balanced.

  • Prevents Damage to Hot Tub Equipment: High chlorine concentrations can corrode hot tub components like heaters, jets, and pipes. By using a chlorine reducer, you protect your investment and keep your hot tub in top condition.

  • Easy to Use: Chlorine reducer is simple to apply, typically available in granular or liquid form. It works quickly and efficiently to neutralise excess chlorine, allowing you to enjoy your hot tub without worrying about chemical imbalances.

Treatment:

  1. Test the Water: Use a pool test kit or digital tester to check the chlorine level in your water.
  2. Add Chlorine Reducer: Follow the product instructions for the correct dosage based on your pool or hot tub size.
  3. Wait for the Results: Allow the water to circulate for several hours, then retest to ensure the chlorine level is within the safe range (1-3 ppm).
  4. Adjust if Needed: If chlorine levels are still too high, add a little more reducer and retest.

Storage & handling:

  • Store in a cool Dry Place
  • Keep out of reach of children
  • Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing
  • Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection

FAQs

What is Chlorine Reducer?

Chlorine Reducer is a chemical used to lower free chlorine levels in hot tubs, spas, and pools safely. It neutralises excess chlorine to bring water back into the safe and comfortable range.

Why would I need Chlorine Reducer?
  • Water feels harsh or smells strongly of chlorine

  • Skin or eyes are irritated

  • High sanitiser levels after shock treatments or heavy chemical dosing

How do I use Chlorine Reducer?
  • Test the free chlorine level using test strips or a digital tester.

  • Calculate the required dose based on your hot tub or pool volume and current chlorine level.

  • Add the product to the water (usually pre-dissolved in a bucket for best results).

  • Run the jets/pump to circulate the water evenly.

  • Retest the chlorine level and adjust further if necessary.

How quickly does it work?
  • Usually works within minutes, but full circulation ensures even distribution.

  • Retesting after 15–30 minutes is recommended.

Can I overdose it?

Yes — too much chlorine reducer can lower chlorine to unsafe levels, allowing bacteria or algae growth. Always retest and adjust carefully.

Does it affect pH or other water balance factors?

No — Chlorine Reducer primarily neutralises chlorine; it has minimal impact on pH, alkalinity, or hardness.

What should the chlorine level be before using my hot tub or pool?
  • Hot tubs/spas: 3–5 ppm

  • Swimming pools: 1–3 ppm
    If your level is above this, Chlorine Reducer can safely bring it back down.

Can Chlorine Reducer be used for bromine systems?

Yes — it reduces both chlorine and bromine levels, as they are both halogens and react similarly with reducer chemicals.

Is Chlorine Reducer the same as Dechlorinator?

Yes — many products labelled as "Dechlorinator", “Chlorine Neutraliser”, or “Chlorine Remover” use the same active ingredient (sodium thiosulphate).
