Keep Your Pool Clean With Pool Phosphate Remover
Pool phosphate remover makes pools cleaner by reducing high levels of phosphate that promote algae growth. High levels of pool metals and minerals can discolor pools and cause pool walls and plumbing to rust. Stain- and metal-control products — including phosphate remover — dissolve minerals and keep your pool looking healthy.
Metals and minerals make pool water hard and unhealthy for swimmers. Check out our guide — How to Maintain a Pool — for more pool maintenance advice.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does phosphate remover do to a pool?
A: Pool phosphate remover works to clean mineral deposits and stains for healthier pool water. Doing so helps to prevent walls and other pool fixtures from developing rust. Phosphate remover will also eliminate phosphates, preventing algae growth in the pool.
Q: Is phosphate remover necessary for pools?
A: Pool phosphate remover is useful for preventing algae in your pool, but it’s not the only method. Maintaining a chlorine level of 2 to 4 parts per million (ppm) with constant filtration is often enough to avoid algae problems. Consider phosphate remover when tests of your pool show that its phosphate levels are too high. Read our guide — How to Get Rid of Pool Algae — to learn more.
Q: How do I get rid of brown stains in my pool?
A: Pool stain remover can get rid of brown stains either before or after you open your pool. Before you open your pool, add the remover to the pool while you fill the pool and before you add chlorine. Find more pool-opening tips with our guide on the subject, How to Open Your Pool. If your pool is already open, allow the chlorine level to drop to zero before adding pool metal remover. Filter your pool and let the product circulate overnight or until you see desirable results.
