Swimming Pool Chemicals Price in Kenya 2026 + Weekly Pool Care Routine

A clear, safe pool needs three things: enough chlorine, the right pH and good filtration. This guide lists the swimming pool chemicals and pumps on Buy More Mall with prices, and gives a simple weekly routine for home, hotel and school pools.

Pool Chemicals Price List

Chlorine 65 or Chlorine 90?

• Chlorine 65 (calcium hypochlorite) dissolves fast. Use it for regular dosing and to shock the pool after heavy use or rain. It slowly raises calcium and pH.
• Chlorine 90 (trichlor) is stronger per kilo and contains stabiliser that stops the sun burning chlorine off. It is acidic and lowers pH over time. Too much stabiliser builds up, so do not use it for every shock.

Target Levels

Widely used guidance, including from the US CDC, is to keep:

• Free chlorine: at least 1 ppm, usually 1 to 3 ppm.
• pH: 7.2 to 7.8. Chlorine works much better at the lower end of this range.

Test at least twice a week, and every day for busy hotel or school pools.

Weekly Pool Care Routine

1. Test pH and chlorine with the test kit.
2. Adjust pH first with pH plus or pH minus, then chlorine.
3. Chlorinate to keep 1 to 3 ppm. Shock with Chlorine 65 after parties or heavy rain.
4. Brush and vacuum walls and floor, empty the skimmer and pump baskets.
5. Backwash the sand filter when the pressure gauge rises.
6. Run the pump long enough each day to turn the pool water over at least once.

Pool Pump Prices

A variable speed pump costs more to buy but runs most of the day at low speed, which can cut pumping electricity a lot. For building a new pool, see Swimming Pool Construction.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is pool chlorine in Kenya?

Dayliff Chlorine 90 is KSh 3,000 and Dayliff Chlorine 65 is KSh 3,625 on Buy More Mall. The all-in-one BLU52 pack is KSh 4,300.

Why is my pool green even with chlorine?

Usually the pH is too high, the chlorine is used up by algae faster than it is added, or the filter is not running long enough. Test, correct pH, shock and brush.

How often should I shock my pool?

After heavy use, after heavy rain, when the water looks dull, or about once a week for busy pools.

What is the best pool pump for a home pool?

A 0.75 kW pump such as the Dayliff DPL550 suits many home pools. A variable speed pump like the DPL1100 VS saves power.
