Pool Algaecide

Quat Pool Algaecides or Quaternary Ammonium compounds, are technically detergents which is why overuse can cause some foaming to the pool. Quats function as microbial disinfectants, by attaching themselves to negatively charged algae cells. Once attached, they dissolve the outer protective membranes, which allows the chlorine sanitizer to penetrate the organism’s nucleus. Quats are the most economical pool algaecide on the market and are typically sold in 10% and 50% concentrations or strengths.

Usage

An initial dosage of 26 ounces of In The Swim Pool Algaecide for every 10,000 gallons of water will control and prevent algae growth in your pool. Regular maintenance every other week of 16 ounces per 10,000 gallons of water will keep your pool crystal clear and free of algae.

Before adding the In The Swim Swimming Pool Algaecide, make sure to brush your pool thoroughly. Clean or backwash your filter, empty skimmer and pump baskets, and turn on the main circulation pump. Super chlorinate according to water volume and interior type. This will build a chlorine residual in the pool.
