Potassium monopersulfate is an oxidizer comprised of potassium salt. There is no chlorine in this type of shock and it does not kill bacteria. So whatâs the point? When there is a high level of organic waste in the pool, the available chlorine is used up attacking that, giving bacteria free reign to grow. Non-chlorine shock oxidizes the organics and helps clarify pool water. This allows the free chlorine to do its job of attacking bacteria and algae instead.
Oxidizers are the secondary sanitizer, used every few weeks to kill algae and bacteria. Chlorine or Non-Chlorine shocks are in a powdered form, just open the bag and pour it into the pool. Calcium Hypochlorite: Cal Hypo pool shock is used to quickly sanitize pool water, boost chlorine levels and kill algae.
