Overview
Neutralise instantly dechlorinates tap water, protecting beneficial microbes from the harmful effects of both chlorine and chloramine. It's ideal for conditioning tap water before adding microbial products such as Biosys. It can also be used with soil, coco and hydroponic systems as a pre-treatment for irrigation water and nutrient solutions.
Benefits
- Treats Chlorine and Chloramine
- Ideal for organic gardeners
- Allows beneficial microbes to flourish
- Pre-treatment for hydroponic nutrient solutions
The Science
Neutralise has been formulated to actively target the presence of chlorine and chloramine in tap water. Chlorine is a powerful disinfectant added to water supplies all across the UK to kill potentially harmful bacteria. No doubt you will have smelt chlorine when running the tap or having a shower.
Chlorine alone in tap water can create some unwanted harmful by-products, so water companies also utilise a more stable version of chlorine known as chloramine. The procedure involves mixing ammonia into chlorinated water. Chloramine is far more persistent than chlorine alone, making it more effective at killing bacteria right to the point of drinking your glass of tap water, or watering your plants.
