Water Testing Because frequent testing of pool water is an important part of total pool maintenance, BioGuard makes test kits, replacement reagents and test strips. Your BioGuard Authorized Dealer can also analyze your water for you in the store free of charge. It's a good idea to bring in a water sample every 4-6 weeks to maintain proper balance. Remember to replace reagents and check the expiration date of test strips at the beginning of each season for the most accurate results.
| Algicides & Algae Solutions Algae prevention is the third step in the BioGuard 3-Step and Once-a-Week 3-Step Programs. Because algae is one of the most common and troublesome pool maintenance problems, we recommend prevention as the best cure. For suppressing algae, Optimizer® Plus* is a great choice. You can use it with any sanitizer type, and it also enhances water quality for a softer feel and sparkling appearance. You can also choose BioGuard Back Up® or BioGuard Algae All 60™ for preventing algae growth. Our best suggestion is to use both Optimizer® Plus and Back Up®. If you do have a problem with visible algae growth - no matter what type algae it is - BioGuard offers a whole range of solutions. Our algae products are available in both liquid and granular forms. Balancers BioGuard balancers are essential for an effective chemical treatment program. They include products that control scale, prevent metallic stains, adjust the pH and total alkalinity, and correct mineral imbalances.
Stain Preventors Many fill water sources, especially from wells, contain trace amounts of metals such as iron, copper and manganese. These can cause stains if untreated. It's important to test your fill water after filling your pool and adjust accordingly. Bring a water sample to your BioGuard dealer if you need assistance. Cleaners & Water Enhancers BioGuard offers products that do everything from adding extra sparkle to the water to keeping your filter operating at peak efficiency. We make a pool cover cleaner and preservative, water clarifiers, tile and surface cleaners and products to combat high chlorine levels and foam.
