Poolife® 3" Cleaning Tablets 4.8lbs
Product Overview
A proven choice for maintaining a steady, slow-dissolving chlorine residual without constant manual dosing.
Unlike generic pucks that crumble prematurely, Poolife® 3" Cleaning Tablets are formulated with 99% Trichloro-s-Triazinetrione to deliver slow-dissolving, consistent sanitization. In our experience, these stabilized chlorinator tablets reliably handle daily organic loads and debris—making them a reliable choice for consistent water quality in residential pools. Available in 4.8lbs (labeled as 4.81 LB / 4.81 lbs), 25 lbs, and 50 lbs containers, they are what pool techs reach for when setting up automatic feeders, floaters, or skimmers for low-maintenance, week-long protection.

Product Details
Trichloro-s-Triazinetrione 99%
1 to 2 tablets per 10,000 gallons weekly to maintain 1–3 ppm free chlorine.
Compatibility
- Do not mix directly with other pool chemicals, especially calcium hypochlorite or dichlor, as dangerous chemical reactions may occur.
- Compatible with all pool surface types including vinyl, plaster, and fiberglass when used in a feeder or floater.
- Maintain pH at 7.2–7.6, total alkalinity at 80–120 ppm, calcium hardness at 200–400 ppm, and salt at 2700–3400 ppm.
When To Use This
Pro Tip
In hot southern climates, high sun exposure burns chlorine faster, but using stabilized pucks continuously can cause CYA to climb above the ideal 30–50 ppm range. If your CYA exceeds 50 ppm, temporarily switch to a non-stabilized sanitizer like calcium hypochlorite to avoid chlorine lock.
Common Questions & Instructions
How many Poolife 3 inch cleaning tablets do I need for a 10,000 gallon pool?
For standard maintenance, use 1 to 2 tablets per 10,000 gallons of pool water every 7 days in a floater or feeder. Always adjust the feed rate to maintain a constant free chlorine level of 1–3 ppm, especially during periods of heavy bather load or high temperatures.
Do these Poolife 3 inch chlorine tablets raise cyanuric acid (CYA) levels?
Yes. Because these tablets are formulated with 99% Trichloro-s-Triazinetrione, they are stabilized and will gradually increase cyanuric acid. We recommend keeping your cyanuric acid levels between 30–50 ppm and monitoring regularly to prevent over-stabilization.
Can I put Poolife 3 inch stabilized chlorinator tablets directly into my pool skimmer?
While they are compatible with skimmers, we recommend using an automatic chlorinator or floating dispenser. If placed in the skimmer, running the pump continuously is crucial to prevent highly acidic water from concentrating and damaging your pool equipment when the pump is off.
