Api PEP2 Salt Water Pool Balancer 2 Lb

Product Description

The API PEP2 is a white granular chemical balancer formulated specifically for salt water swimming pools. It works by reducing phosphate levels, inhibiting scale formation on salt cell generators and pool surfaces, and improving the effectiveness of the pool sanitizer system. This product is packaged in a 2-pound container and is used by pool service technicians and experienced pool owners as part of a routine salt water pool maintenance program. Keeping phosphate levels low is critical for salt water systems, as elevated phosphates feed algae growth and reduce sanitizer efficiency.

The PEP2 is intended for use in residential and light commercial salt water pools. It applies directly to pool water as part of a regular maintenance schedule. Pool service professionals commonly incorporate this product into monthly or seasonal water balancing routines alongside salt level checks, cell inspections, and pH adjustments. It is particularly useful during periods of heavy bather load, after heavy rainfall, or when phosphate levels test above recommended thresholds.

Key Features

• White granular formula designed for salt water pool systems
• Helps prevent scale buildup on salt cell generator components, pool equipment, and surfaces
• Helps maintain low phosphate levels to reduce algae pressure and protect sanitizer output
• Improves sanitizer effectiveness in salt water generator systems
• Supports longer service life of salt water generator cells
• 2-pound package suitable for standard residential pool maintenance dosing

Compatibility

Designed for use in salt water swimming pools equipped with salt chlorine generators. Suitable for residential pool maintenance applications where phosphate control and scale prevention are part of the water care program.

Installation Notes

Pool service professionals should test water chemistry, including phosphate levels and salt concentration, before dosing. Follow label dosing instructions and add product to pool water with the circulation pump running to ensure even distribution. Keep the generator cell clean and inspect it regularly as part of ongoing salt system maintenance. Store product in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
