Key Function

  • Raises Total Alkalinity – Designed to increase total alkalinity levels when tests fall below the recommended range

  • Stabilizes pH Levels – Helps prevent rapid pH swings (“pH bounce”) by properly buffering pool water

  • Protects Pool Surfaces & Equipment – Balanced alkalinity reduces corrosive water conditions that can damage plaster, vinyl, heaters, and metal components

  • Improves Chemical Efficiency – Proper alkalinity allows chlorine and other sanitizers to work more consistently and effectively

  • Safe for All Pool Types – Suitable for inground and above-ground pools, including saltwater pools, when used as directed

  • Easy-to-Use Granular Formula – Dissolves readily and can be added according to label instructions for precise water balance control

  • 5 lb Bag for Maintenance or Correction – Ideal size for routine water balance adjustments or correcting low alkalinity issues

  • Foundational Water Balance Chemical – Total alkalinity should be adjusted before final pH balancing for best overall results

If your pool’s pH won’t stay balanced or swings wildly after every adjustment, low total alkalinity is usually the root cause. Poolife® Alkalinity Plus is a professional-grade total alkalinity increaser designed to stabilize pool water chemistry by buffering pH and preventing corrosive conditions.

This 5 lb bag is ideal for routine maintenance, smaller pools, or targeted alkalinity corrections—giving pool owners precise control without overcorrecting water balance.


Raises Total Alkalinity to Stop pH Bounce

Total alkalinity acts as a buffer that keeps pH stable. When alkalinity is too low, pH becomes difficult to control and fluctuates rapidly. Poolife Alkalinity Plus:

  • Raises total alkalinity to recommended levels

  • Stabilizes pH and prevents rapid swings

  • Creates a solid foundation for balanced water chemistry

Correct alkalinity makes every other chemical adjustment more effective.


Protects Pool Surfaces & Equipment from Corrosion

Low alkalinity causes aggressive water that can damage:

  • Heaters and heat exchangers

  • Metal fittings and plumbing

  • Plaster and cement-based finishes

By buffering pH, Poolife Alkalinity Plus helps prevent corrosion, etching, and premature equipment wear.


Improves Chlorine Efficiency & Reduces Chemical Use

Balanced alkalinity allows chlorine to perform more efficiently and helps:

  • Reduce frequent pH adjustments

  • Lower overall chemical consumption

  • Maintain clearer, more consistent water

This makes ongoing pool maintenance easier and more predictable.


Ideal for Routine Maintenance & Small Adjustments

The 5 lb bag is perfect for:

  • Weekly or monthly water balance upkeep

  • Smaller residential pools

  • Post-rain or refill alkalinity correction

  • Fine-tuning water chemistry

It allows controlled dosing without waste.


Safe for All Pool Types

Poolife Alkalinity Plus is compatible with:

  • Chlorine pools

  • Saltwater pools

  • Plaster, pebble, vinyl, and fiberglass surfaces

It integrates smoothly into standard Poolife and non-Poolife chemical programs when used as directed.


Trusted Poolife Professional Formula

Poolife products are trusted by pool professionals for reliability and consistency. Alkalinity Plus delivers predictable results and long-lasting water stability for homeowners and service techs alike.
