On the basis of product type, the swimming pool treatment chemicals for residential application market has been segmented into sanitizers, balancers, shocks, algaecides, and others. The sanitizers segment accounted for the largest market share in 2019, and the balancers segment is expected to register the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period. Sanitizers help maintain the safety and hygiene of pools by killing bacteria and viruses, eliminating chloramines, and neutralizing algae present in the water. By maintaining the chemical balance of the pool water, they make the pool water safe and clean for other swimmers. The most commonly used pool sanitizers include chlorine and bromine. Chlorine is available in the form of tablets, granules, and liquid, among others. It is effective in killing bacteria and other pathogens in water. Chlorine can be introduced to the pools in stabilized and unstabilized forms. The unstabilized chlorines include chemicals such as sodium hypochlorite, calcium hypochlorite, lithium hypochlorite, and chlorine gas, whereas the stabilized chlorines include dichloro-s-triazinetrione (dichlor) and trichloro-s-triazinetrione (trichlor). Although chlorine has its own benefits, it is extremely susceptible to sunlight and has to be regularly monitored. To overcome this issue, many of the chlorine-based sanitizers are now being sold in combination with cyanuric acid that acts as a conditioner/stabilizer and protects the swimmer's skin from the effect of sunlight.
