Better Water for
Pools & Hot Tubs

A Water Softener with a Dechlorinator
Helps Protect Your Investment

Reduce hardness minerals and chlorine in your fill water to help
prevent scale buildup, keep your water clearer and support longer
life for your pool, hot tub and equipment.

LESS SCALE

CLEANER WATER

PROTECT EQUIPMENT

BETTER SWIMMING EXPERIENCE

The Problem:
Hard Water and Chlorine

Municipal and well water often contains calcium and magnesium
(hardness minerals) and chlorine or chloramines. When this water
is used to fill or top up your pool or hot tub, these minerals
and chemicals can contribute to scale buildup, cloudy water and
wear on equipment over time.

Hard-water deposits along a pool waterline

Waterline Deposits

Visible white, chalky buildup on tile, surfaces and fittings.

Mineral scale around spa jets and fittings

Scaled Jets

Mineral buildup around jets and fittings can restrict water flow.

Scale buildup on pool or spa heating equipment

Scale on Heaters

Scale on heat-transfer surfaces can reduce heating efficiency
and contribute to equipment problems.

Cloudy pool water associated with mineral precipitation

Cloudy Water

Under scale-forming conditions, dissolved minerals can precipitate
from the water, contributing to cloudiness and deposits.

The Solution:
Soften and Dechlorinate
Your Fill Water

A properly sized water softener helps reduce calcium and magnesium
minerals that cause scale. A dechlorinator (activated carbon)
reduces chlorine and chloramines from municipal water. Together,
they provide ideal fill water for your pool or hot tub, helping to:

  • Minimize scale buildup on surfaces, jets and heaters
  • Help maintain cleaner, more balanced water
  • Support better performance and longer life for your equipment
  • Provide a more enjoyable swimming and soaking experience

Your Pool Water Needs Balance —
Not Simply “Soft Water”

Too much calcium can promote scaling, while insufficient calcium can
be more aggressive toward certain pool surfaces and equipment. The
ideal water balance depends on your specific pool or hot tub and
equipment manufacturer recommendations.

Balanced Water

Helps protect surfaces, equipment and provides a better swimming
and soaking experience.

Why Hot Tubs Can Show
Hard-Water Problems Faster

Hot tubs operate at higher temperatures and have relatively small
water volumes. Heat, evaporation and changes in water chemistry
can cause dissolved minerals to precipitate, leading to chalky
residue, rough surfaces and deposits around jets and fittings.

A Smarter Approach to
Pool & Hot Tub Water

1

Understand your source water

Municipal or well water.

2

Test the water

Check hardness, chlorine/chloramines and other key
characteristics.

3

Recommend the right system

A water softener with a dechlorinator, sized for your
home and pool or spa.

4

Enjoy the benefits

Less scale, clearer water and better protection for
your investment.
