Long-lasting summer algaecide that prevents and treats algae in swimming pools. Supports crystal-clear water and is part of the A.C.T. system for seasonal pool care.
To keep your swimming pool clean and safe, you’ll need a combination of sanitising and balancing chemicals. Most pools in Surrey and Hampshire use chlorine or bromine for disinfection, along with pH adjusters, alkalinity increasers, calcium hardness stabilisers, and algaecides. Shock treatments and clarifiers can also be used when water conditions fluctuate.
The recommended pH level for swimming pools is between 7.2 and 7.6. Maintaining this balance helps chlorine work efficiently and keeps the water comfortable for swimmers. Total Pool Care supplies both pH increasers and reducers to help maintain this ideal range for pools across Surrey and Hampshire.
It’s best to test pool water at least twice a week to maintain a healthy chemical balance. Regular testing ensures chlorine, pH, and alkalinity levels remain within the safe range. During periods of heavy use or hot weather, testing more frequently helps prevent problems before they start.
Algae can be prevented by maintaining correct chlorine levels, brushing pool surfaces regularly, and keeping water circulating. Using an algaecide and shock treatment as part of your routine care also helps. Total Pool Care supplies high-quality algaecides and maintenance chemicals throughout Surrey and Hampshire.
If chlorine levels are too high, allow the pool to rest uncovered in sunlight to help the chlorine naturally dissipate. For a faster result, you can use a chlorine neutraliser such as sodium thiosulfate. High chlorine can cause irritation, so it’s best to test and adjust levels before swimming.
Chlorine is the most common pool sanitiser, but alternatives like bromine, saltwater systems, and UV or ozone systems are also used. Each option has advantages depending on the pool’s setup and user preferences. Total Pool Care can supply and advise on the right sanitising method for your pool in Surrey or Hampshire.
