ALGAE CONTROL
Algae is a form of plant life which can vary in size from a
few thousandths of an inch to the size of a small tree.
Of the many forms of algae, those most frequently
found in swimming pool water are microscopic in size
and green in color.
Algae readily grows in sunlight and can, under
favorable conditions, quickly overgrow a swimming pool
turning it completely green in just a few hours. On the
other hand, swimming pool water can be kept
unfavorable to algae growth simply by maintaining a
chlorine level of at least 0.5 ppm in the water at all
times. The chlorine level should be checked at least
once a day using a suitable test kit.

(Retain for Your Records)
If an algae condition develops and the pool water
"blooms" green, superchlorination of the pool will be
necessary to clear it. Add unstabilized granular chlorine,
or liquid chlorine.
Follow chemical manufacturer's recommendation for
superchlorination. The algae will quickly become
inactive and can then be removed by the filter. Live
algae, on the other hand, multiplies so fast that the filter
cannot keep up with its growth rate. In an active algae
situation, it may be necessary to regenerate the Perflex
filter as frequently as every 2 to 3 hours.
When correctly used, commercial algaecides are
effective against algae, though algaecides should be
used in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for,
regular chlorination or superchlorination.
Maintaining a chlorine level of at least 0.5 ppm in the
pool water at all times is the most effective way to
prevent algae growth in swimming pools.
