The present invention is directed, in part, to a composition of about 60 parts by weight calcium oxide and about 40 parts by weight magnesium oxide that is administered as a buffering agent to a pool or spa in a ratio of approximately 1 cup of composition to 500 gallons of pool or spa water. The composition is produced in either a granular powder form or into a tablet form, the tablet form being capable of being fitted into a manufactured device that occupies a position upstream of the pool or spa water filter and in doing so, stabilizes and buffers the pH of the water entering the filter to about a range of between 7.2 and 7.8. The invention is also directed to enhancing the effectiveness of chlorine in sanitizing pool or spa water by removing the negative effects of phosphate compounds in the pool or spa water. |
