PROBLEM:
Green floating algae begins growing on the walls and

Floor of the pool, spreads rapidly,

Especially in the Presence of sunlight.

Shock the pool and use a 60% Algaecide

Pool’s surface hen rapidly grows to larger areas. Strongly

Clings to walls and floor. Can be difficult to treat.

PROBLEM:
Mustard algae, named for its yellowish-tan color.

Easily brushed off surfaces but quickly returns.

It prefers shady areas with poor circulation. Resists normal chlorinating treatments.

SOLUTION:
Correction will include brushing and the use of copper

Base algaecide. It would be a good Idea to through everything

In the pool that has come in contact with the pool.

Treat everything. Follow and label directions carefully.

 

 

 

Note:

After treating the pool with the copper base

Algaecide, and when all the algaecide
is gone from the pool, Always us a stain & Scale or

Metal Out to dilute the copper in the water.

 

 

This is what I recommend.

Follow the Manufactures instructions.
