Artic Blue® is a proven safe and effective algicide. Sometimes, however, any algicide will fail to prevent algae growth for the duration of the winter. We have found two causes of winter algicide failure:
- Algae already present and/or no chlorine in the water at the time of winterization. If this is the case we will shock treat the pool. We will use your chlorine, if available, or we will charge you for shock used off our trucks.
- Mesh covered pools which are not opened until after the weather turns warm in the spring also have problems with algae. We recommend that any mesh covered pools that will be opening after April 1st should have an additional chemical treatment. Please call for additional information.
A COMPLETE WINTERIZATION USUALLY INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING, but our experienced mechanics use their knowledge of each individual pool to delete or add steps for the best results for your pool.
