Applications

From the first weeks of use, algarine will stabilize and clarify your pool water for the rest of the season.

Please refer to the dosage calculator for the appropriate quantity.

algarine may be used at the start or at any time of the season.

It remains safe even when high concentrations of chlorine or other disinfectants are in the water. As with any other type of treatment, it is necessary to maintain proper water balance:

• Total alkalinity (TAC)
• Calcium hardness (TH)
• pH

As well a sufficient concentration of disinfectant (chlorine, bromine, etc.) should be ensured. Monitor these parameters using an appropriate analysis kit. The temperature and properties of the water may affect these parameters. algarine is not compatible with PHMB (Biguanide).

At the beginning of the season and depending on the quality of your pool water, it may be necessary to proceed to a shock treatment. Follow the instructions provided by the chlorine manufacturer (or of the other disinfectants used) for amount required. For optimum treatment, adjust pH between 7.0 and 7.4. In this range, water is mild for the skin and optimizes the efficiency of disinfectants.

All season long, use algarine once a week. It can be poured directly into the skimmer. Let the filter run for a few hours to provide for adequate distribution of the product. For cartridge filters, dilute the required quantity in warm water (preferably) before pouring it directly into the pool. Please refer to the chart on the packaging for the amount to use.

If treatment starts mid-season, dilute a double dose of algarine (or triple if water temperature exceeds 26°C) in a bucket of water (preferably warm) and pour it in front of the return fittings or distribute it around the basin.

algarine may also be used in problem water.

Following the disinfectant shock treatment, dilute a double dose of algarine (or triple if water temperature exceeds 26°C) in a bucket of water (preferably warm) and pour it in front of the return fittings or distribute it around the basin.

algarine does not replace disinfectants.

It is VERY important to ALWAYS maintain a safe concentration of disinfectants in your pool water. The number of swimmers and water temperature influence this concentration. Maintaining an adequate level of disinfectants in the water provides for maintaining healthy, clear water. After excessive rains, when the temperature is very hot or after intensive use of the pool, it might be necessary to add disinfectant to maintain a safe concentration.
