cal hypo keeps your water clear

Quickly raising the level of chlorine in your swimming pool, TurboShock™ with Cal Hypo eliminates algae, bacteria and other organic contaminants that can cloud the water and foster growth of unwanted organisms.

say goodbye to chlorine lock

TurboShock uses calcium hypochlorite (Cal Hypo) to sanitize your pool without cyanuric acid (CYA). This ensures you won’t have to deal with overstabilization or chlorine lock, which prevents chlorine from properly sanitizing the water.

Easy to use

Add 1 lb. bag of TurboShock per 10,000 gallons of water to the deepest part of the pool with the pump running. For the best results, use it as part of your weekly pool care routine to keep free available chlorine levels between 1 and 4 ppm. If any granules settle to the bottom of the pool, use brush to disperse.

WHY DO MY CHLORINE LEVELS
FLUCTUATE?

Chlorine levels in your pool can change due to a variety of factors including the number of swimmers and the level of contaminants in your water. When chlorine binds to impurities in the water, it forms chloramines or combined chlorine.

WHAT DOES
SHOCK DO?

Shocking your pool with TurboShock releases these bound chloramines so effective sanitization can continue. It helps eliminate these contaminants and restore chlorine levels. This ensures your water remains sparkling, clean and safe for everyone to enjoy.

WILL IT WORK
IN MY POOL?

TurboShock works well in all swimming pools including vinyl-lined and saltwater systems. And because it’s a Cal Hypo-based formula, it doesn’t contain cyanuric acid. That means you won’t have to deal with overstabilization or chlorine lock.
