Ecothrive Neutralise is a quick water conditioner that instantly removes harmful chlorine and chloramine from tap water. It protects beneficial bacteria and root health in soil, coco coir, and hydroponics, ensuring optimal microbial life.
Provide the ideal foundation for healthy root systems and thriving microbial life with Ecothrive Neutralise. This quick, simple, and highly concentrated water conditioner instantly removes harmful chlorine and persistent chloramine from your tap water. Using the safe, active ingredient Vitamin C, Neutralise prevents these disinfectants from damaging beneficial bacteria in your soil, coco coir, or hydroponic system. It is an indispensable, cost-effective solution for all growers, especially those relying on microbial products like Ecothrive Biosys and Ecothrive Charge.
Key Benefits of using Ecothrive Neutralise
- Instant Chlorine and Chloramine Removal: Instantly neutralises both chlorine and the more persistent chloramine, making tap water safe for plants and microbes immediately.
- Protects Beneficial Biology: Shields crucial root zone microorganisms from being killed by disinfectants, ensuring the full effectiveness of microbial products and promoting natural nutrient uptake.
- Cost-Effective Alternative: Eliminates the need for expensive, time-consuming methods like Reverse Osmosis filtration or waiting 24 hours for chlorine to gas off (which doesn't remove chloramine).
- Safe and Plant-Friendly Formula: The active ingredient is concentrated Vitamin C, which safely converts chlorine compounds into harmless chloride (a plant micronutrient).
- Versatile Water Treatment: Ideal for pre-treating irrigation water, mixing nutrient solutions, making compost teas, and ensuring optimal conditions in all soil, coco, and hydroponic setups.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I be concerned about chlorine and chloramine in tap water?
Chlorine and chloramine are powerful disinfectants that kill microorganisms. When used for irrigation, they attack the beneficial bacteria and fungi in your root zone and growing media, potentially reducing nutrient cycling, damaging root growth, and making all microbial products, such as Ecothrive Biosys, far less effective.Does Neutralise also remove chloramine, or just chlorine?
Yes, Neutralise is specifically formulated to instantly target and remove both free chlorine and chloramine. This is crucial because chloramine, unlike free chlorine, is persistent and will not dissipate simply by letting your water stand overnight.Will Ecothrive Neutralise affect the pH or EC of my nutrient solution?
Neutralise is concentrated and will not affect the final Electrical Conductivity (EC). It is mildly acidic and may slightly reduce the pH of soft tap water (by about 0.1), but this effect is minor and typically unnoticeable when treating moderate or hard water.Is a carbon filter a better solution than using Neutralise?
While carbon filtration is a good option for removing free chlorine, most compact carbon filters do not effectively remove persistent chloramine. Neutralise is the more reliable and cost-effective choice for instantly treating water, ensuring both free chlorine and chloramine are neutralised every time without the expense and maintenance of high-end filtration equipment.SKU: 1337Free delivery on orders over £60*
