BioGuard Silk Sticks

Product Information

BioGuard Silk Tabs and Silk Sticks are revolutionary new products exclusive to BioGuard and the first sanitizer made with SilkGuard Technology. These products differ from traditional chlorine because their special additives actually soften the water by attaching to hard water components and metal surfaces, which protects your pool equipment from scale, corrosion and staining, all while killing bacteria. These slow dissolving sanitizers contain SunShield Technology so that chlorine is protected from sunlight for long-lasting sanitation of pool water.

Dosage

Start-Up/Initial Treatment: 16 oz. per 10,000 gallons.

Sunlight, rainfall, temperature, number of swimmers, and frequency of pool use affect the rate of chlorine residual loss so check the floater, feeder or skimmer often and refill as needed.

	by Anita on 11/6/2008	Very Nice There is a definite difference to the feel of the pool water between smart sticks and these silk sticks. The silk sticks really do create a softer feel to the water. Very easy to use; put them in the automatic chlorinator once a week and that's it.
	by Heather on 10/15/2008	Perfect pool water Easy to use - keeps our pool water looking and feeling great! I wouldn't use anything else!
	by Jean on 10/11/2008	Silk Sticks So convenient and a much smoother feel to the water with these silk sticks!
