Trichlorine and Chlorine are indispensable elements in the management of swimming pool water, ensuring effective disinfection and a safe environment for swimmers. Their proper management and monitoring through accurate measurements are crucial to keeping the water clean, safe and pleasant for swimming. In our catalog you will find different variations, including:
  • Granular chlorine
  • Chlorine tablets
  • Liquid chlorine
The active ingredient is the same, but the concentrations and methods of use vary:
  • The chlorine intended for shock chlorinations, for an immediate effect, is known as Dichloro and is available in granular or tablet form;
  • For ordinary maintenance of the swimming pool, Trichlor is used, a slow-release chlorine, available in granular or tablet form;
  • Alternatively, liquid chlorine is available in tanks to be connected to dosing pumps, which, automatically and based on pre-established parameters, dose the chlorine directly into the pool water

What is the difference between Dichloro and Trichloro?

Trichlor for ordinary and constant chlorination of the swimming pool

Trichlor is a slow-release form of chlorine, used to constantly maintain the presence of Free Active Chlorine in the water. This product is particularly useful for long-term water treatment, as it provides a controlled and constant release of chlorine, reducing the need for frequent additions. Its 200g or 250g tablets gradually release chlorine into the water, maintaining its concentration constant for effective disinfection over time. This makes trichlor the preferred choice for routine pool treatment, ensuring continuous protection against bacteria and germs.

Dichloro for shock chlorination and immediate intervention

Dichlor is preferred for shock chlorinations, when an immediate increase in the chlorine concentration is necessary. Thanks to its rapid solubility and its high concentration of useful chlorine (generally 55-56%), dichlor is effective in quickly solving problems of water turbidity or algae formation. It is the perfect solution when your pool water is showing signs of deterioration or has been exposed to higher than normal contaminant loads.

What is the best chlorine for the swimming pool?

The choice between trichlor and dichlor depends on the specific needs of your pool and the current water situation. If you are looking for constant and continuous protection, trichlor is the ideal choice. However, if you need to quickly solve water quality problems, dichlor is the perfect solution for effective shock chlorination. Regardless of your choice, be sure to carefully follow the instructions for safe and effective use of chlorine in your pool.

Measurement and Monitoring of Chlorine in the Swimming Pool

To ensure optimal levels of chlorine, both free and combined, the use of specific Test Kits is essential. These allow you to accurately measure the concentration of chlorine in the water. It is important to take the water for testing approximately 15cm below the surface at the deepest point of the pool, to obtain a representative sample of the pool water.
