Bromine Tablets for Regular Disinfection – 1 kg (20 g tablets)
These slow-dissolving 20 g bromine tablets are designed for the regular disinfection of spas, hot tubs, and pools. With more than 96% active ingredient content, they ensure powerful and long-lasting protection against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and algae — even under demanding water conditions.
Bromine remains effective at high pH levels and elevated water temperatures, making it ideal for hot tubs, where chlorine often becomes unstable. The tablets dissolve evenly, leave no residue, and maintain a stable disinfectant level for continuous water hygiene.
The product comes with protective gloves for safe, no-contact handling.

⚠️ Important Information About Bromine By-Products & What to Watch Out For
When bromine disinfects water, it reacts with organic contaminants and naturally forms several reaction by-products. These are not dangerous, but users should be aware of them to ensure optimal water quality and comfort.
1) Bromamines – normal but must be controlled
Bromine reacts with organic matter such as sweat, body oils, cosmetics, and urea, producing bromamines.
Possible effects:
-
mild, non-chlorine smell
-
slight skin sensitivity for people with very sensitive skin
-
reduction of the disinfectant’s effectiveness over time
Unlike chlorine, bromamines do NOT produce a harsh chlorine odor.
How to reduce bromamines:
-
clean filters regularly
-
maintain proper bromine level (3–5 ppm)
-
perform periodic non-chlorine shock treatment
-
ensure users shower before entering the spa
2) Bromides (Br⁻) – safe, but can accumulate
Bromine naturally converts into bromide ions, which are harmless but can:
-
accumulate if water is not changed regularly
-
gradually reduce the overall disinfectant efficiency
Recommendation:
Replace spa water every 2–3 months.
3) Organic residues – caused by users, not bromine
These come from:
-
lotions
-
oils
-
cosmetics
-
sweat
-
dead skin cells
Bromine oxidizes these contaminants, but when present in excess, they can cause:
Possible effects:
-
cloudy water
-
oily film on the surface
-
increased filter load
Prevention:
Regular filter cleaning + shower before using the spa.
4) Over-dosing bromine
Excessive bromine levels may cause:
-
dry skin
-
mild eye irritation
-
stronger chemical smell
-
faster metal corrosion in some components
Correct bromine level: 3–5 ppm
5) Ventilation for indoor spas
Even though bromine is much less irritating than chlorine, in small indoor spa rooms the fumes may cause:
-
throat sensitivity
-
light smell buildup
Good ventilation is recommended.
Recommended Water Checks
To maintain safe and efficient water quality, monitor:
-
bromine level (ppm)
-
pH (ideal 7.2–7.8)
-
alkalinity
-
bromide accumulation (after long usage)
Traditional disinfectants (chlorine, bromine) create oxidation by-products, so regular water checks ensure comfort and system stability.
