SpaPure Oxidizing Shock | Non-Chlorine Spa Shock
SpaPure Oxidizing Shock is an oxygen-based, non-chlorine spa shock built around potassium monopersulfate (MPS). Every time someone soaks, they leave behind sweat, body oils, lotions, cosmetics, and dead skin — a layer of organic bather waste that has nothing to do with bacteria but everything to do with cloudy, dull, tired-looking water.
That waste is also what quietly drains your sanitizer. Left alone, your chlorine or bromine spends itself burning off oils and organics instead of doing its real job — controlling bacteria. Shocking with an oxidizer clears that organic load so your sanitizer stays free to protect the water, and so it stops getting used up before its time.
Because SpaPure Oxidizing Shock is oxygen-based rather than chlorine-based, it does the cleanup without the side effects: it won't raise your chlorine, calcium hardness, or cyanuric acid, and it won't bleach or fade your shell, pillows, or cover. And it works fast — the water is ready to use again about 15 minutes after you apply it.

SpaPure® Brand FAQs
What is SpaPure, and who makes it?
SpaPure is a line of spa and hot tub water care products from Haviland Pool & Spa, a 100% employee-owned American manufacturer with more than 55 years of pool and spa experience. Haviland's Pool & Spa division began in 1968 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and all SpaPure products are made in the USA.
Is SpaPure formulated specifically for spas, or is it pool chemicals in smaller bottles?
SpaPure is engineered specifically for spas and hot tubs. Spa water is a different challenge from pool water — far less volume, a much higher bather load per gallon, and hotter temperatures that accelerate everything. SpaPure's formulas are concentrated and dosed for that environment rather than scaled-down pool products.
Can I use SpaPure products with my chlorine, bromine, or salt water system?
Yes. SpaPure makes products for chlorine, bromine, and salt/mineral programs, plus balancers, shocks, clarifiers, and specialty treatments that work alongside any of them. Match the sanitizer-specific products to your system, and use the balancers and oxidizers regardless of which sanitizer you run. If you're not sure what fits your setup, a quick water test will point you to the right products.
Why buy SpaPure from an authorized dealer like Leisure Time Inc.?
Buying from an authorized dealer means you get fresh, correctly stored product — spa chemicals degrade with age and poor storage — backed by people who can actually help you use it. Leisure Time Inc. has carried spa water care for decades, and our team can match products to your specific spa and water chemistry. Chemicals sold far below market price on third-party marketplaces are often expired, mishandled, or gray-market, with no support behind them.
Why do some SpaPure products ship ground only and can't be returned by mail?
Certain spa chemicals — chlorine and bromine products, oxidizers, and some acids — are classified as hazardous materials by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Federal regulations require them to ship by ground rather than air and prohibit consumers from mailing them back. Products with this restriction are noted on the product page. If you have unopened chemicals you no longer need, you can return them in person at one of our showrooms or contact us about your options.
How do I know which SpaPure products my spa needs?
Start with a water test. Testing tells you what your water actually needs instead of guessing — which sanitizer level to adjust, whether to balance pH or alkalinity, and when to shock. You can test at home with SpaPure test strips, or bring a water sample to any Leisure Time showroom for free in-store testing and a product recommendation. You can also call us and we'll walk you through it.
