- To Control Black Algae in Swimming Pools
When algae appears on the bottom of the pool:
- Adjust the pH of the pool water to 7.2 – 7.8.
- Turn off filter and wait until water is calm enough to see spots on the bottom.
- Brush black algae spots with a stiff bristle or wire brush.
- Pour approximately 1 oz. (1/8 cup) of Hasa's Algi-Ban directly over the spot and allow it to settle to the bottom. Use enough of this product to completely cover the algae spot.
- Allow Algi-Ban to dissolve for a period of 45 to 60 minutes, then brush black algae away.
- It may be necessary to repeat treatment or allow more contact time.
When algae is located on the pool walls:
- Brush black algae spots with a stiff bristle or wire brush.
- Place 1 oz. (1/8 cup) of Hasa's Algi-Ban in a cotton cloth.
- Tie off with string and lower the bag into the water so that it touches the black algae spot.
- Allow the bag to remain in place 45 to 60 minutes, then remove and brush algae away.
- In extreme cases, it may be necessary to repeat treatment or allow more contact time.
- For spot treatment on walls and bottom, use the prescribed dosage regardless of pool gallonage.
When pool is infested with black algae:
- Adjust the pH to 7.2 - 7.8.
- Brush black algae spots with a stiff bristle or wire brush.
- Add at least one pound of Algi-Ban per 4,000 gallons of pool water and broadcast it over entire pool surface all at one time.
- Shut down pump for 24 hours.
- Follow this treatment with a thorough brushing.
- If a few traces of black algae remain, steps 1 through 5 should be repeated or the instructions for spot black algae should be followed.
- In severe cases, where the pool has been neglected for long periods of time, consult your pool service expert for advice.
