Scalefree Natural Chemistry | Stain and Scale Prevention

Developed from real spoken insights shared by our technicians & product specialists.

Pro Tip #1: “When you’re filling a fresh pool with Arizona’s hard tap water, start clean by adding 64 ounces per 10,000 gallons—or double that for 20,000 gallons—so the product can lock up minerals before they turn into a stubborn calcium line.”

Pro Tip #2: “If a tile line is already forming, raise the water two to three inches above it, dose the product directly into the pool, and brush once or twice a week so the softened scale breaks down and releases from the surface.”

Pro Tip #3: “For ongoing protection, keep 5 ounces per 10,000 gallons in the water monthly—especially on salt pools—because the same formula that clears tile also keeps calcium from bonding to your salt cell grids and helps the cell produce cleaner, stronger chlorine.”
