Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are phosphates and why do they matter?
A: Phosphates enter your pool through rain, leaves, fertiliser runoff, sunscreen, and body oils. They are the primary food source for algae - high phosphate levels make algae blooms almost inevitable, even with correct chlorine levels.
Q: How do I know if my pool has high phosphates?
A: Signs include persistent algae growth, cloudy water that does not clear with chlorine, and high chlorine consumption. A phosphate test kit or strip will give you a precise reading. Bring a water sample into our Albany warehouse and we can test it for you.
Q: How often should I use phosphate remover?
A: For routine maintenance, dose weekly at 100ml per 50,000L. After heavy rain, high bather loads, or visible algae, increase to 500ml per 50,000L and retest before re-dosing.
Q: Is it safe for saltwater and mineral pools?
A: Yes - the formula is compatible with chlorine, saltwater, and mineral pool systems.
Q: Can I swim after adding phosphate remover?
A: Yes - the formula is non-toxic and biodegradable. We recommend waiting until the product has fully dispersed through the return jets before swimming, typically 15-30 minutes.
Q: Will phosphate remover clear my cloudy water on its own?
A: Phosphate remover targets the cause of algae-related cloudiness. For faster clarity, pair it with a Super Strength Clarifying Tablet to flocculate fine particles.
