5 above-ground
sparkling pool water picks

1. HTH™ Pool Care Filter Cleaner

The filter and pump are the heart of your pool, and the HTH™ Pool Care Filter Cleaner keeps it beating. By keeping your filter clean, it pumps out clear pool water that lasts and prevents cloudiness. Check that your filter is properly working, remove the filter, clear debris and use the solution for a more in depth clean. Replace the filter and run it routinely for 8+ hours every day to circulate your pool water and get lasting results.

2. HTH™ Pool Care Alkalinity Up
and pH Up / pH Down

To strike the perfect balance between sanitized, non-corrosive pool water, HTH™ Pool Care Alkalinity Up, HTH™ Pool Care pH Up and HTH™ Pool Care pH Down are your go-tos for balancing. When alkalinity is too low, corrosion can cause damage to your pool and equipment. When it’s too high, scaling and cloudiness can occur. High pH levels cause irritation and corrosion while low levels render chlorine ineffective. Adjust your alkalinity between 60 and 120 ppm and keep pH levels between 7.2 and 7.8 for clear, non-corrosive pool water.

Algae Guard Ultra

4. HTH™ Pool Care Metal,
Stain & Scale Control
