Enzymes Are Nature’s Catalysts

Enzymes are biological molecules — usually proteins — that speed up natural chemical reactions. In water care, their job is to break down and digest organic contaminants that accumulate in pools and spas.

Think of them as “microscopic workers” that eat away the things that make water cloudy or unbalanced.

Common contaminants they target include:

· Body oils, sweat, lotions, cosmetics

· Organic debris (leaves, pollen, and dust)

· Biofilms and microscopic waste that feed bacteria

Without enzymes, these organics build up, forcing you to use more chlorine, shock, and clarifiers to maintain clear water.

Waters Choice Enzymes Don’t Just Work on the Surface

Many competing enzyme brands use single-enzyme formulas that target only one type of contaminant — usually oils or lotions.
Waters Choice uses multi-enzyme complexes, meaning several specific enzyme types are combined to attack a broad spectrum of organic waste.

Each enzyme has its own specialty:

· Lipase breaks down oils and greases.

· Protease targets proteins from sweat and sunscreen.

· Amylase breaks down starches and carbohydrates.

· Cellulase helps digest plant and environmental debris.

By combining these, Waters Choice creates a synergistic effect — the enzymes work together to continuously clean the water at the molecular level.

Continuous Cleaning = Less Chemistry

Because Waters Choice enzymes constantly digest the waste that chlorine normally oxidizes, your sanitizer (chlorine, bromine, or salt system) doesn’t have to work as hard.

That means:

· Fewer chemical adjustments

· Lower chlorine demand

· More stable pH and alkalinity

· Cleaner filters and longer equipment life

Essentially, the enzymes remove the food source that bacteria feed on, allowing your sanitizer to maintain a lower, steadier level — and your water stays crystal clear, naturally.

The Waters Choice Difference

Most enzyme products are designed to assist chemical programs.

Waters Choice is designed to replace many of them and greatly reduce the sanitizer demands rather than being just another additive.

That’s why:

· You only dose once a month.

· You don’t need constant shock or clarifiers.

· The water feels softer, smells fresher, and looks clearer.

Our proprietary formula is non-toxic, biodegradable, and gentle — safe for skin, eyes, and lungs — making it ideal for anyone focused on wellness and health.

Environmentally Smart Chemistry

By reducing chemical use, Waters Choice also helps protect the environment:

· Less chemical waste and runoff

· Lower packaging and transport footprint

· Safer working conditions for service professionals

This makes it a true sustainability win.

 In Summary

Waters Choice enzymes work by:

1.        Breaking down organic waste before it becomes a problem.

2.        Reducing chemical demand so you use fewer sanitizers.

3.        Balancing water naturally, making it softer and more stable.

4.        Simplifying maintenance for professionals and end-users.

They’re not an add-on — they’re a complete water management system designed around nature’s own chemistry.
