Southern Leisure Super Shock – Concentrated Dichlor Spa Sanitizer & Shock (2 lb.)

Concentrated Chlorine Sanitizer and Shock for Hot Tubs and Swim Spas

Southern Leisure Super Shock is a concentrated granular chlorine treatment formulated to sanitize hot tub water, oxidize organic contaminants, and help restore clean, clear water. Its fast-dissolving dichlor formula contains 99% sodium dichloro-s-triazinetrione dihydrate and provides 55% available chlorine.

Use Super Shock as both a routine sanitizer and a superchlorinating shock in traditionally maintained chlorine spas. It is especially useful after heavy bather loads, parties, cloudy-water conditions, unusually high sanitizer demand, or other situations requiring a stronger chlorine treatment.

Because this is a stabilized dichlor product, each addition also introduces cyanuric acid. Regular testing and periodic water replacement are important to prevent excessive cyanuric acid accumulation.

Important for FROG @ease owners: Current FROG operating instructions recommend a non-chlorine shock such as FROG Maintain for routine monthly shocking. FROG specifically advises against routine dichlor shock because cyanuric acid buildup may reduce SmartChlor effectiveness. Use Super Shock with FROG @ease only for startup or another limited application specifically permitted by the current FROG instructions or recommended by Southern Leisure for your situation.

📋 How to Use

Always follow the current directions and safety precautions printed on the product container. Test the water before adding chlorine and again before entering the spa.

Before Treatment

1. Determine the spa’s actual water capacity.
2. Test the free chlorine, pH, and total alkalinity.
3. Adjust pH to approximately 7.2–7.6 unless the spa manufacturer specifies another range.
4. Maintain total alkalinity at approximately 80–120 ppm unless otherwise directed.
5. Make sure the circulation system is operating properly.
6. Open the spa cover and confirm that no one is in the water.

Routine Chlorination

1. With the jets or circulation pump operating, measure the amount required by the product label.
2. The current Southern Leisure product guide uses approximately ½ teaspoon per 500 gallons as a maintenance addition of about 1 ppm free chlorine.
3. Broadcast the granules evenly across the water’s surface.
4. Do not pour concentrated granules into the filter compartment or allow them to collect in one location on the spa shell.
5. Allow the water to circulate with the cover open.
6. Retest and adjust as necessary to reach the sanitizer range specified by the product label and spa manufacturer.

Superchlorination

1. For a stronger shock treatment, the current Southern Leisure product materials specify approximately one level tablespoon per 500 gallons.
2. Broadcast the measured granules evenly across the spa water with the jets operating.
3. Leave the cover fully open during the initial circulation period so chemical vapors can escape.
4. Allow the water to circulate thoroughly.
5. Test the free chlorine before anyone enters the spa.
6. Do not use the spa until the chlorine returns to the safe operating range specified by the product label and spa manufacturer.

Spa Capacity	Approximate Routine Dose	Approximate Shock Dose
300 gallons	0.3 teaspoon	0.6 tablespoon
400 gallons	0.4 teaspoon	0.8 tablespoon
500 gallons	½ teaspoon	1 level tablespoon
1,000 gallons	1 teaspoon	2 level tablespoons

Important: These amounts are scaled from the dosage currently shown in Southern Leisure’s product materials. Actual chlorine increase depends on water volume, chlorine demand, product measurement, temperature, and existing water chemistry. Follow the physical container label and verify the result with an appropriate water test.

💬 Southern Leisure Says

Super Shock gives traditional chlorine users one product that can handle routine sanitation and stronger shock treatments. Small maintenance additions help maintain the required chlorine residual, while a larger label-directed dose helps oxidize contamination following heavy spa use.

Do not add a full shock dose automatically whenever the spa is used. Test the water first and apply the amount appropriate for the current chlorine level, bather load, and water condition.

If you use FROG @ease, follow the FROG program instead of treating it like a traditional chlorine spa. Use FROG Maintain or another manufacturer-approved non-chlorine shock for routine maintenance. Excessive dichlor use introduces cyanuric acid that can interfere with SmartChlor performance.

🧼 Care & Maintenance

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is Super Shock a chlorine or non-chlorine shock?

It is a chlorine-based dichlor sanitizer and shock containing 55% available chlorine. It is not an MPS non-chlorine oxidizer.

Can I use Super Shock as my spa’s primary sanitizer?

Yes. Super Shock can be used for routine sanitation and shock treatment in a traditional chlorine spa when applied according to the container label and verified through regular water testing.

Do I need a FROG system to use it?

No. Super Shock works independently as part of a conventional chlorine water-care program.

Can I use it for routine shocking with FROG @ease?

Current FROG instructions say not to use dichlor as the routine shock because cyanuric acid buildup can reduce SmartChlor effectiveness. FROG recommends FROG Maintain, a non-chlorine shock, when replacing the SmartChlor Cartridge or approximately once per month.

Can it ever be used when starting a FROG @ease system?

Some FROG system instructions permit an EPA-registered hot tub chlorine shock to establish the required initial free-chlorine residual. Follow the instructions supplied with the exact FROG system. For Bullfrog-specific systems, FROG Jump Start is the preferred startup treatment.

How much should I add for routine chlorination?

The current Southern Leisure product guide lists approximately ½ teaspoon per 500 gallons to add about 1 ppm of free chlorine. Test before and after treatment because the actual result varies with measurement, spa volume, and chlorine demand.

How much should I add for superchlorination?

The current Southern Leisure materials list approximately one level tablespoon per 500 gallons. Always compare this dosage with the current physical container label before treatment.

How often should I shock a traditional chlorine spa?

Many traditionally chlorinated spas benefit from weekly shocking and treatment after heavy use, but testing and actual water conditions should determine the need. Do not add a full shock dose automatically when the chlorine is already elevated.

Can I enter the hot tub immediately after treatment?

No. Leave the cover open, allow the product to circulate, and test the water. Do not enter until the chlorine is within the safe range specified by the product label and spa manufacturer.

Does dichlor add cyanuric acid?

Yes. Dichlor is a stabilized chlorine product, so repeated use increases cyanuric acid. Excessive cyanuric acid can make chlorine less effective and is especially problematic for FROG @ease SmartChlor systems.

Why is the water still cloudy after shocking?

Cloudiness may also result from incorrect pH or alkalinity, dirty filters, insufficient circulation, high calcium hardness, excessive dissolved solids, plumbing contamination, or an overdue drain and refill.

Can I pour Super Shock into the filter compartment?

Broadcast the granules evenly over the spa water with circulation operating unless the physical product label specifically directs another application method. Do not allow concentrated granules to collect on the shell.

Can I use it in a swim spa?

Yes, when permitted by the swim-spa manufacturer and used according to the product label. Calculate the dosage using the swim spa’s actual water capacity and verify the result by testing.
