When pool water problems demand serious correction, light-duty shock treatments won’t cut it. The Poolife™ TurboShock™ Shock Treatment (5 lb) is a high-power calcium hypochlorite shock formulated to deliver fast, decisive results when water turns cloudy, algae begins to form, or chlorine demand spikes unexpectedly.

With 78% available chlorine, TurboShock is one of the strongest cal hypo shock treatments available, making it a trusted choice for pool owners and professionals who need reliable oxidation and algae control without adding stabilizer to the water. Whether you’re correcting a problem or maintaining peak water clarity, this 5 lb size offers power, efficiency, and value.


High-Strength 78% Cal Hypo for Aggressive Water Correction

Not all pool shock is created equal. TurboShock’s 78% calcium hypochlorite formulation delivers a concentrated chlorine dose that works quickly to oxidize contaminants and kill algae.

This strength allows TurboShock to:

  • Rapidly clear cloudy or dull water

  • Destroy algae before it spreads

  • Eliminate chloramines that cause odor and irritation

  • Restore sanitizer effectiveness after heavy use or storms

Because of its high potency, fewer applications are often needed compared to lower-strength shock products.


No Stabilizer — Won’t Raise Cyanuric Acid Levels

One of the most important benefits of Poolife TurboShock is what it doesn’t contain. This cal hypo shock adds no cyanuric acid (CYA) to your pool.

That makes it ideal for:

  • Pools already using stabilized chlorine

  • Preventing CYA buildup over time

  • Avoiding reduced chlorine effectiveness

  • Maintaining long-term water balance

It’s the preferred shock option when you want strong oxidation without creating future chemistry problems.


Convenient 5 lb Size for Regular Shocking

The 5 lb container strikes the perfect balance between convenience and value. It provides enough product for multiple treatments without the bulk of commercial-size containers.

This size is ideal for:

  • Weekly or bi-weekly shock routines

  • Seasonal algae prevention

  • Corrective treatments after heavy bather load

  • Medium to large residential pools

Fast-dissolving granules make application straightforward when used according to label directions.


Effective Against Algae, Contaminants, and Chloramines

TurboShock doesn’t just raise chlorine—it actively oxidizes organic contaminants like sweat, sunscreen, oils, and debris that consume sanitizer and cloud water.

Used as part of a consistent maintenance program, it helps:

  • Maintain crystal-clear water

  • Prevent recurring algae blooms

  • Reduce eye and skin irritation

  • Improve overall pool water quality

For pools that need dependable shock performance, TurboShock delivers predictable results.
