Is Your Pool Showing These Symptoms?
Body oils, lotions, sunscreens, sweat, and organic waste all overload your pool's sanitation system. They make water cloudy, smelly, and irritating. And adding more chlorine does not fix them.
That "pool smell" is not chlorine. It's chloramines, the byproduct of chlorine reacting with body oils, sweat, and organic waste.
Irritation is caused by chloramines and dissolved contaminants. Swimmers with sensitive skin or allergies feel it most.
Oils, sunscreen, and organics consume chlorine before it can sanitise. You end up adding more and more for less and less effect.
Organic waste is algae food. High organic load makes blooms nearly impossible to prevent, even with the correct chlorine level.
The "More Chlorine" Myth
Adding more chlorine to a pool full of chloramines just makes the smell and irritation worse. You need to oxidise the organic waste first. That frees up your chlorine to actually sanitise instead of fighting contaminants.
Just Adding More Chlorine
Increases smell and irritation. Harsh on skin and swimwear. Risk of bleaching surfaces. Doesn't fix the root problem.
Using Oxi Shock Instead
Burns off organic waste instantly. No smell, no bleaching. Swim in 15 minutes. Makes your existing chlorine work harder and last longer.
How to Use Oxi Shock
Broadcast
With the pump running, broadcast the correct dose evenly over the deep end of the pool.
Circulate
Oxi Shock dissolves instantly on contact and starts oxidising organic waste immediately. Keep the pump running to distribute it through the water.
Swim!
After just 15 minutes your pool is safe to swim in. No 24-hour wait like chlorine shock. No smell, no irritation, just clean, soft water.
Dosage Guide
Always add with the pump running. Preferably in the evening for best results. Dissolve in a bucket of water first, then broadcast around the edge of the pool.
Swimming can resume just 15 minutes after application.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Oxi Shock uses active oxygen (Potassium Monopersulfate) to oxidise organic waste. It contains zero chlorine. No bleach smell, no harshness on skin, no 24-hour waiting period.
No. Oxi Shock is an oxidiser, not a sanitiser. You still need chlorine (or salt/mineral) to kill bacteria. Oxi Shock works alongside your sanitiser by burning off organic waste, so your chlorine can focus on actually sanitising instead of fighting contaminants.
Yes! Oxi Shock is ideal for spas and hot tubs. You can soak just 15 minutes after dosing, and because it's chlorine-free there's no harsh smell in a confined space.
No. Unlike high-dose chlorine granules that can bleach vinyl if they settle on the bottom, Oxi Shock is completely non-bleaching and safe for all pool surfaces, liners, and swimwear.
For best results, use Oxi Shock weekly at 125g per 10,000L of water as part of your regular maintenance routine. Increase the dose after periods of heavy use, storms, or pool parties. For spas and hot tubs, dose after each use as the small water volume and heat cause organic waste to build up quickly. Always dissolve in a bucket of water first and broadcast around the edge with the pump running.
Potassium Monopersulfate (also called MPS or non-chlorine shock) is the active ingredient in Oxi Shock. It is an oxygen-based oxidiser that breaks down organic contaminants like body oils, sweat, sunscreen, and urea without adding any chlorine to the water. It is widely used in pools, spas, and hot tubs around the world as a gentler alternative to chlorine shock treatments.
That smell is not actually chlorine. It is chloramines, which form when chlorine reacts with organic waste like sweat, sunscreen, and urine. A strong "pool smell" is a sign your water has a high organic load, not that it has too much chlorine. Adding more chlorine makes it worse. Using Oxi Shock to oxidise the organic waste is the correct fix. The smell will disappear as the chloramines break down.
Yes. Oxi Shock is fully compatible with saltwater, mineral, magnesium, and chlorine pools. It does not interfere with your salt cell or chlorinator. In fact, regular use of Oxi Shock in a saltwater pool reduces the organic load, meaning your salt cell does not have to work as hard and will last longer.
Chlorine shock (such as calcium hypochlorite or lithium hypochlorite) kills bacteria by adding a large dose of chlorine to the water. You typically need to wait 24 hours before swimming and it can bleach liners and fade swimwear if misapplied. Oxi Shock uses active oxygen to destroy organic waste without adding any chlorine. You can swim in 15 minutes, there is no bleaching risk, and it produces no harsh smell. The two products serve different purposes and work well together as part of a complete pool care routine.
Yes, and this is one of the best uses for it. After heavy swimmer load, your pool accumulates a high level of body oils, sunscreen, and sweat. Dose at 125g per 10,000L, dissolved in a bucket of water first, then broadcast around the edge with the pump running. Swimming can resume 15 minutes after application.
Oxi Shock has a slightly acidic pH, so very large doses may cause a minor temporary drop in pH. At the standard maintenance dose of 125g per 10,000L the effect is minimal and self-correcting. If you are using a heavy shock dose, check your pH and alkalinity the following day and adjust if needed.
Store the jar in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and moisture. Keep the lid tightly sealed between uses. Do not store near chlorine products or other oxidising chemicals. Keep out of reach of children. Properly stored, Oxi Shock has a shelf life of around 12 months.
