What is Pool Algaecide?

Since the dawn of pools, chemists and scientists have worked tirelessly to produce an effective solution to all algae problems, called algaecide. An algaecide is a chemical treatment product that kills and prevents algae growth. This product is quite effective since it’s not affected by mineral content, pH, sunlight, and water temperature, which often affect the chlorine in your swimming pool.
There are 3 common types of pool algae, but we will look at 4 types:
Green Algae – Also known as blue-green algae, this is the most common kind, and all it needs to develop is warmth, water, and sunlight.
Yellow Algae – This is another form of blue-green algae which is colored with yellow carotenoids. It can grow without sunlight and is chlorine resistant.
Black Algae – It is a strain of green algae that love plaster pools, where it puts down roots. A thick multi-layered cover protects it from chlorine and the majority of algaecides.
Red Algae – Also called pink slime or pink algae, this is a different type of bacteria that also happens to be chlorine resistant and can survive without sunlight.

How to Choose the Best Beach/Pool Towel

Hình ảnh
There are the towels you use to dry off with after your shower, and the towels you take to the pool or the beach. In theory, there really shouldn’t be much difference. After all, a towel is a towel, right? But you wouldn’t want to bring the plain old, worn out beige towels you use at home on your trip to the beach. Your beach towels shouldn’t be bland, they should be big and bold. Read on to find out how you can choose the best possible beach towel. 1. How soft is it? Drying off with a worn, rough towel is one thing. But beach towels and pool towels can often double as blankets. If you’re planning on spending a few hours relaxing on the hot sand, you’ll want a good, soft towel to keep you comfortable. If you’re seeking comfort, you may want to look at towels made from velour, a 100 percent cotton fabric with a tight weave that offers softness and comfort. However, they tend to be less absorbent than other varieties, a factor we’ll get to later. Source from https://www....

What is Pool Clarifier?

Hình ảnh
Sometimes, the little nasty things that create a cloudy pool are just too small for your filter to capture. They pass through the filter’s medium and head right back into the water. Pool clarifier contains polymers that act as coagulants on these tiny particles. When you add clarifier to cloudy water, all those tiny particles clump together into bigger particles your filter can capture and keep from reentering the pool. Note: It’s usually perfectly safe to swim in a cloudy pool. Just keep in mind that visibility underwater will be limited, and opening your eyes underwater may cause irritation. For safety and comfort, we highly recommend skipping the swim until you’ve cleared the water. It seems like a magical pool chemical, but just like anything, it does have its downside. It works slowly. It may be two or three days before your pool is completely clear, depending on the severity of the cloudiness. You’ll need to clean the filter. Once the clarifier...
