Product Description

SpaGuard/BioGuard 1" Brominating Tablets (1.5 lb): Low-Odor Spa Sanitizer & Disinfectant 

Maintain a clean, clear, and inviting hot tub with SpaGuard/BioGuard 1" Brominating Tablets. This 1.5 lb container of slow-dissolving tablets provides continuous, reliable sanitation using a powerful bromine compound. Bromine is known for being gentler on the skin and eyes than chlorine and produces very little chemical odor, making for a more comfortable soaking experience. These tablets are easy to use—simply place them in a spa feeder or floater for consistent, pre-measured dosing. Bromine remains effective at high temperatures and a wider pH range, making it ideal for the demanding environment of a hot tub. 

Key Features

  • Low Odor Formula: Bromine produces minimal chemical odor, providing a more pleasant and comfortable spa environment compared to chlorine.
  • Gentle on Skin & Eyes: Known for being less irritating to sensitive skin and eyes than many chlorine-based sanitizers.
  • Effective in Hot Water: Remains highly effective and stable even at high spa temperatures and a wide pH range, ideal for hot tub use.
  • Slow-Dissolving: Provides a steady, consistent release of sanitizer for continuous protection against bacteria and algae.
  • Convenient 1-Inch Tablets: Perfectly sized for use in a spa floater or automatic feeder, allowing for easy, pre-measured dosing.
  • Active Ingredient: Contains Bromochloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (BCDMH) as the primary active ingredient.
  • Compatibility: Works effectively in brominated spas and is compatible with ozone and mineral purification systems.

Application & Pro-Tips
