Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently was able to try the new HTH® Super Algae Guard, 32oz. It kills and prevents all algae types including green, black and mustard algae in your swimming pool. I simply poured it around the edges of my pool and in no time you have crystal clear water! I love this formula most as I’m able to swim about 15 minutes after pouring in. I definitely recommend HTH® Super Algae Guard, 32oz for anyone wanting to quickly clean their pool.

A Great Product
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so glad that I order this algae guard for my swimming pool. I have tried so many other brands and it seems like they did absolutely nothing, maybe even just made my algae situation worse. I was happy to find this product at a great price and the best part is that actually works to keep my kids swimming in our pool all year round.

How much do I need?
Would Not RecommendSome directions on the website would certainly be helpful. I have no idea how much to use for a 24' round pool. I'll keep looking elsewhere.

Didn't help
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok so my pool finally turned green and I used this to help get rid of the algae I followed the instructions to a T and still my pool is green. I was really hoping it would help me eliminate the problem. This happens every summer wish I had something I could really trust.

Keeps it clean
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This helped my pool out so much. O wasn't sure how or why I kept getting all that green stuff in my pool. I tried this and it kept it clean and free of the green algae. I also used another product with it at the same time. Made such a big difference.

Perfect to remove pool algae
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Super Algae Guard is perfect to use if your pool has some pool algae. It is simple to use and really does make a difference. It is in a convenient bottle and the instructions are easy to follow. We liked using it on ours in the middle of the summer when we noticed a light trace of algae forming and this did the job.

Foaming?
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used the HTH Super Algae Guard in our pool recently. Being in the hot Florida sun, we can get algae build up pretty fast. Directions were simple and easy to use. No strong odor which is great. However, it supposed be nonfoaming. I didn't find this to be accurate, did have foam for at least 48hrs after using product. Butbit certainly didn't stop us from enjoying the pool and helped prevent the algae.

Work like a charm
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] it prevents the algae build up in the pool. It comes in an easy to read graduated bottle. The bottle has a decent cap to keep it closed so there is a good safety seal on the lid. It helps to maintain the treated water at a better balance longer, especially during the rainy season. Upon applying it only took about 2 hours to clear the pool. It works really well. I am happy with the product and will recommend it to my friends.

Good Stuff
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The HTH Super Algae Guard works great, I been using it for three weeks and it eliminates algae overnight. Since it is super concentrate all you use it a few ounces so the bottle lasts a long time. My pool is super clear now and I would buy again.

Must try
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] HTH Super Algae Guard saved my life. I have a large 14ft round pool and after having it for a month I was trying to correct the chemical balance of the water, I tested with test strips and bought supplies. Well, my water was green. It was the famous green algae. Good thing that I picked up the HTH Super Algae. I chose this product because it’s a non-foaming product that kills and prevents green, black and yellow algae.

Works great
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product and had to wait to use it until my pool required it. When my pool started to get a light green I new it was time to try it out. I followed the directions and sure enough after about 24-36 hours the green and slimy floor of my vinyl pool was all gone.

There are better
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product didn't work well on my pool. You will need to use a lot more product then other brands might require, making you spend even more than you should. I wouldn't purchase again. Only reason I am giving it a 3 star is due to the budget friendly and easy accessibility in stores.

A Must Have for garden fountains
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using HTH's Super Algae Guard exclusively for my garden fountain over the past 2 years. It has been the only additive I've found that keeps the water crystal clear. Anyone with an outdoor garden fountain knows how tedious it can be other than draining and refilling it all together. Instead of draining the fountain as recommended every month, I can go by 6 months with clear water by just adding a few ounces.
