What is the difference between SaniStream and SaniStream+?
What is the difference between SaniStream and SaniStream+?
Darlly Sanistream was the first and original hot tub sanitiser inline-dosing system available to hot tub owners and users.
How is SaniStream+ different?
SaniStream+ builds on the success of the original Sanistream system, now offering a positive easy-to-use screw-thread to fasten the pod securely to the yellow-flower filter handle.
The photo below shows the original SaniStream system on the left and the SaniStream+ system replacing it on the right . The ‘yellow flower’ handle screws directly into the top of the closed SaniStream+ filter.
Can I use SaniStream+ pods with all SaniStream+ filters, even open-ended filters?
Yes! All SaniStream+ pods include a screw-cap to enable this. The cap closes the pod when used with a SaniStream+ open-ended filter filter. Simply add your chosen sanitiser tablets to the pod, screw on the cap, twist the pod to adjust to the appropriate dosing, and place on the built-in support in the centre of the filter. It is as simple as that!
Is a SaniStream+ filter a similar height to a SaniStream filter?
Yes. They will both fit in the same space
How do I adjust the dosing with SaniStream+?
The sanitiser dosing level can be adjusted simply by twisting the pod to select the desired level.
Can SaniStream+ help with compliance of HSG282
In a word, Yes.
HSG282 guidelines are relevant for the use of a domestic-type hot tub in a commercial environment, such as holiday parks or holiday rental properties.
For more information about this, read our FilterCare topic Holiday Park Let Hot Tubs – What is HSG282?
Will the SC815 pods work with the new Sanistream + Filters?
No, only the SC815+ pods will work with the new Sanistream + Filters.
What if I have stock of old SC815 Sanistream Pods?
We will exchange any old DL815 pods to the new DL815+ pods free of charge, as long as the pods are unused and in suitable condition.

Inline sanitisation, Darlly Sanistream and SpaPod. What does it all mean?
Let’s start with Inline sanitization / dosing. This is a method of water treatment that takes place in the actual pumped water flow usually in the filter circuit.
It is a low maintenance method of adding chlorine or bromine to the water, usually in the form of tablets enclosed in a small pod. The pod is located inside the hot tub filter and is adjustable to allow the dosage to be tailored to the particular application.
Darlly Sanistream® filters
Darlly Europe’s revolutionary Sanistream® Direct filtration system is a new and unique technology which combines the world’s finest hot tub filters with a safe, convenient and effective sanitiser dispenser to give an integrated spa water treatment system. Sanistream® is suitable for domestic hot tubs and it also allows compliance with Section 76 of HSG282 regulations for hot tubs installed in holiday let units.
DL 815 SpaPod
The SpaPod is designed for use in Darlly Sanistream® filters. The SpaPod simply twist clicks into place on the bottom of the Darlly SaniStream filter lid. The Pod is a watertight canister pod capable of holding 5-6 chlorine or bromine tablets with a controllable flow output. The tablets should last, with normal operation, 2-3 weeks.
Easy to use, safer sanitation and cost effective. SpaPod does not come with any Chlorine or Bromine, simply add your choice when necessary.
SC800 Nature 2
Nature2 SPA is perfect for spa owners looking for an eco-friendly, low maintenance alternative to heavy chlorine or bromine to keep their spa clean and free of harmful bacteria and viruses. Nature2 SPA uses an EPA-approved mineral bed technology to effectively kill bacteria safely and effortlessly.
DL 816 AquaSPArkle Pod
For use in Darlly Sanistream® filters, the AquSPArkle Bromine Pod (Chlorine Pod following shortly) is a larger version of the SpaPod but comes ready filled with enough Bromine Tablets to last you up to a month.
(Available in packs of 3)
There are three possible ways to use the AquaSPArkle pod:-
a) Use in a built-in propriety hot tub dosing system or frame.
b) Use with a Darlly Sanistream open-top filter or open-top filters fitted with a centre support to retain the pod.
c) Use with a Darlly Sanistream handle-top filter that allows the pod to easily twist and click into place.
It takes a while for the bromine tablets to begin to dissolve so it may be appropriate to first shock treat to immediately establish chlorine and bromine residuals. Add the appropriate amount of shock treatment as per the product label dosing instructions. Always test your hot tub water prior to use and maintain bromine levels between 4 to 6 mg/l.
