Beige/White Floating 1" Spa Dispenser
Product Overview
Engineered for spas and plunge pools, this 1-inch tablet floater delivers metered sanitizing without over-chlorinating confined water volumes.
The Poolstyle PS229 (item PSL-45-5829, UPC 8 44268 00567 0) is a Deluxe Series floating dispenser built for 1-inch chlorine or bromine tablets. Molded from UV- and chemical-resistant thermoplastic, it maintains stable vertical buoyancy as tablets dissolve to prevent concentrated chemical contact with spa acrylic. Its twist-action lower vent collar provides direct control over tablet erosion rates in bodies of water up to 1,500 gallons.

Benefits & What Makes It Different
Sized for 1-Inch Tablets
Built specifically for standard 1-inch sanitizing tabs, avoiding the severe over-chlorination caused by placing 3-inch pool tablets into low-gallonage hot tubs.
Adjustable Metering Vents
The twist-to-adjust collar regulates water circulation through the inner basket, letting you match tablet dissolution directly to bather load.
Chemical-Grade Thermoplastic
Constructed from heavy-duty plastic formulated to resist hot-water breakdown, harsh UV radiation, and high localized halogen concentrations.
Compatibility
- Standard 1-inch chlorine (trichlor) tablets
- Standard 1-inch bromine tablets
- Acrylic, fiberglass, vinyl, and tile hot tubs or small pools
When To Use This
Pro Tip
Tether the floater away from return jets and skimmer openings; high water velocity against the vents erodes tablets significantly faster than intended and risks blowing acidic sanitizer against a single spot on the shell.
Common Questions & Instructions
Can I use both chlorine and bromine tablets in the Poolstyle PS229?
Never mix chlorine and bromine in the same dispenser, even at different times. Combining residues from different sanitizers creates an unstable reaction that can cause fire or explosion. Dedicate this dispenser exclusively to one chemical type.
How many tablets does the Poolstyle PSL-45-5829 dispenser hold?
The inner basket typically accommodates between 3 and 6 standard 1-inch tablets, depending on the thickness of the specific tablet brand being used.
How often should this floating spa dispenser be replaced?
Plan to replace the unit every 1 to 2 seasons. Constant exposure to elevated spa temperatures and concentrated sanitizer degrades plastics over time, eventually leading to brittle caps or cracked chambers.
