Poolife Flocculant

In Stock

$16.99

Poolife Flocculant is used to treat haze in swimming pools. Haze may be composed of finely divided particles such as clay, silica, or organic material. Since these particles may be too small for the filters to remove, it is necessary to use a Flocculant to coagulate these particles, thus facilitating their removal from the pool.

Directions For Use

1.5 lb per 10,000 gallons of pool water

Filter Aid Directions:

1. Check the filter pressure. If it is more than 8 psi above the normal pressure for a clean filter, then backwash or rinse the filter off according to manufacturer's recommendations

2. Check returns to make sure they are directed toward the bottom and away from the skimmer in a circular pattern

3. Adjust pH to between 7.2 and 7.8 and total alkalinity to between 80 ppm and 120 ppm

4. Slowly add recommend amount of Poolife Flocculant listed on bottle directly to skimmer while pump is running

5. Filter continuously for 48 hours checking back pressure periodically. In the event of high filter pressure, backwash, and rinse filter according to filter manufacturer's recommendations

6. If pool is still not clear, repeat steps 3, 4 and 5

7. After pool is cleared, resume normal filtration routine (8-12 hours per day minimum)

Pool Flocculant Directions:

1. Check filter pressure. If it more than 8 psi above the normal pressure for a clean filter, then backwash or rinse filter off according to manufacturer's recommendations.

2. Raise the water level in the pool to the top of the skimmer box

3. Adjust pH to between 7.2 and 7.8 and total alkalinity to between 80 and 120 ppm.

4. Shut off filter pump. Pump must be off for 24 to 48 hours. If pup is equipped with a timer, be certain that the "on trip" has been removed.

5. In a large clean bucket of water make a solution of Poolife flocculant at the rate of 1.5 lb per 10,000 gallons of pool water and broadcast the solution evenly over the surface of the pool.

6. Do not use the pool for 24-48 hours allowing the cloudiness (floc) to settle. Vacuum the floc to waste. If a large amount of floc becomes resuspended, turn the pump off, allow enough time for the floc to resettle, and then vacuum to waste.

7. Check returns to make sure they are directed toward the bottom and away from the skimmer in a circular pattern. Filter until water clears. 

8. Check water balance and adjust accordingly.

9. Resume normal filtration routine (8-12 hours per day minimum)
