How Dr. Dryden Enhance Summer Makes Chlorine Last 3 Times Longer in Your Pool

In sunny climates, chlorine burn-off is one of the most frustrating (and expensive) issues pool owners face. You test your water in the morning, add chlorine, and by the time the afternoon sun hits, it's already disappearing.

But what if your chlorine could last 3 times longer?
With Dr. Dryden Enhance Summer, it can.

At EZ Pool & Spa Supply, we proudly recommend ACO (Active Catalytic Oxidizer) as a smarter, more sustainable alternative to traditional chlorine stabilizers. Here’s how ACO helps you protect your chlorine, save money, and enjoy cleaner, safer water—all without relying on cyanuric acid (CYA).

The Problem: Sunlight Destroys Chlorine

Chlorine is incredibly effective at killing bacteria and algae—but it’s highly sensitive to UV rays. Without protection, direct sunlight can destroy up to 90% of your chlorine in just a few hours.

That means:

• You're constantly adding more chlorine
• Your pool becomes vulnerable to algae
• You waste time and money chasing a stable chlorine level

The Traditional “Fix”: Cyanuric Acid (CYA)

CYA is commonly used as a chlorine stabilizer. It does reduce chlorine loss—but at a major cost. High levels of CYA bind your chlorine, reducing its effectiveness. As CYA builds up in your pool, the chlorine you add becomes weaker and less capable of sanitizing your water.

In other words:
You protect your chlorine—but you also neuter it.

The Better Solution: Dr. Dryden Enhance Summer

ACO (Active Catalytic Oxidizer) is a groundbreaking technology developed in Europe that protects chlorine from sunlight without reducing its effectiveness. It's a UV-absorbing liquid that acts as a sacrificial shield—absorbing UV rays before they can reach and destroy your free chlorine.

The Result:

Up to 300% longer chlorine lifespan.
No chemical buildup.
No overstabilization.

How ACO Works

ACO doesn’t just block UV—it enhances your entire water treatment system:

• UV Protection: ACO absorbs harmful UV rays before they break down chlorine molecules.
• Boosted Oxidation: ACO helps create free radicals, which enhance the breakdown of contaminants.
• No Chemical Locking: Unlike CYA, ACO doesn’t “bind” chlorine—it preserves its sanitizing power.
• Safe and Sustainable: ACO is non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe for swimmers and pets.

Real-World Benefits for Pool Owners

1. Use Less Chlorine
   With longer-lasting chlorine, you don’t have to add as much. That means fewer trips to the store—and fewer chemicals in your water.
2. Clearer, Cleaner Water
   By boosting oxidation and chlorine efficiency, ACO helps keep your pool sparkling with less effort.
3. No Risk of Overstabilization
   ACO doesn’t accumulate in your water, so you won’t need to drain or dilute your pool to get levels back in range.
4. Lower Chemical Costs
   Using ACO reduces your reliance on other chemicals like algaecides, clarifiers, and shock.

Easy to Use

Adding ACO to your pool is simple:

• Add 16 fl oz per 10,000 gallons weekly (or as needed during peak sunlight months)
• Pour directly into the pool or use with a dosing pump
• Works with all chlorine-based systems (including saltwater)
