Description
BioGuard Sparkle Up Filter Enhancer - 1.5 lb
BioGuard Sparkle Up is a pool filter enhancer designed to help restore clear, sparkling water when tiny particles are making your pool look cloudy, hazy, or dull. This cellulose filter aid works with your existing pool filter to trap fine particles such as suspended dirt, plaster dust, dead algae, pollen, and other small debris that can be difficult for standard filtration to capture on its own.
Better Filtration for Clearer Pool Water
Cloudy pool water is often caused by fine particles that are too small to be removed efficiently during normal filtration. BioGuard Sparkle Up helps your filter catch those tiny particles more effectively, improving water clarity and helping your pool regain a bright, polished look.
It is a practical pool water clarity product for routine maintenance, post-cleanup care, and situations where your pool filter needs extra help removing the fine debris that can leave water looking flat or cloudy.
Why Pool Owners Use BioGuard Sparkle Up
Helps Restore Water Sparkle
BioGuard Sparkle Up is formulated to help cloudy pool water look cleaner and brighter by improving the filter’s ability to capture tiny suspended particles. It is ideal when your water looks dull even though the pool is being filtered.
Improves Filter Performance
This product works directly with the pool filter to help trap particles that may otherwise pass through. By enhancing filtration, it supports clearer water and more effective pool maintenance.
Helps Remove Copper and Iron
BioGuard Sparkle Up also aids in the removal of copper and iron, helping reduce the risk of metal-related staining and discoloration in pool water.
Compatible with All Filter Types
Sparkle Up can be used with sand, cartridge, and D.E. filters when applied according to the appropriate filter instructions. It is also compatible with common pool sanitizing systems, including chlorine, bromine, Mineral Springs, and saltwater systems.
