Abstract
A composition and method for cleaning, sanitizing and maintaining contained bodies of water such as swimming pools, wading pools, fountains, ornamental ponds, etc. The composition includes pre-determined percentages of copper sulfate, zinc sulfate, and aluminum sulfate by weight. The composition and method reduce amounts of chlorine and an amount of labor associated with the cleaning, sanitization and maintenance of contained bodies of water.
Claims10
A composition for cleaning and sanitizing contained bodies of water sanitized with chlorine, comprising:
- 40% to 50% copper sulfate;
- 40% to 50% zinc sulfate;
- and
- 10% to 20% aluminum sulfate, by weight,
- wherein the copper sulfate reduces an amount of chlorine added to the contained body of water to sanitize the contained body of water, and inhibits photo-degradation of chlorine from sunlight thereby further reduces the amount of chlorine necessary to sanitize the contained body of water, and wherein the composition causes debris and other particulate matter to sink to a bottom of the contained body of water for easy removal.
A composition for cleaning and sanitizing water in a swimming pool sanitized with chlorine, comprising:
- 45% copper sulfate;
- 45% zinc sulfate;
- and
- 10% aluminum sulfate, by weight,
- wherein the composition cleans and sanitizes the water in the swimming pool, inhibits photo-degradation of chlorine from sunlight thereby further reducing the amount of chlorine necessary to sanitize the water in the swimming pool, maintains the chemical properties of the water within pre-determined pH limits and causes debris and other particulate matter to sink to a bottom of the swimming pool for easy removal.
