Baquacil is a brand of pool care products that provides a chlorine-free alternative for sanitizing and maintaining swimming pools. Instead of chlorine, Baquacil uses biguanide  as its primary sanitizer, which is gentler on skin, eyes, hair, and swimsuits.

• Chlorine-Free System:

  • Baquacil’s main appeal is its non-chlorine sanitizer, which doesn’t have the strong odor, bleaching effects, or harshness often associated with chlorine.

• Three-Part System:

  • Sanitizer (PHMB): Controls bacteria and keeps the water clear.

  • Oxidizer: Breaks down organic contaminants that enter the pool.

  • CDX Enhancer: Maintains water clarity and helps stabilize the sanitizer.

• Gentle on Swimmers:

  • Especially beneficial for those with sensitive skin or eyes.

  • Water often feels softer and smoother compared to chlorine-treated pools.

• Stable Chemistry:

  • Unlike chlorine, biguanide does not degrade quickly under sunlight or fluctuate as much due to environmental factors, leading to more consistent pool chemistry.

• Requires Specific Maintenance:

  • Cannot be mixed with chlorine or bromine.

  • Requires regular use of Baquacil-specific products to maintain balance.

  • Periodic shock treatments and filter cleaning are still necessary.

• Ideal for Residential Pools:

  • Often chosen by homeowners who prioritize comfort, water quality, and minimal chemical odors.
