SwimNow = Oxidizer (Shock)
SwimWeekly = PhosRemove?
Bought Pool Opening Kit which includes:
- 1kg Oxidizer (Chlorine-free oxidizing shock)
- 1L Stain Scale ****
- 1L Super Algae 40
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
- Ensure that you have already filled your pool with water and the pump is running
- Add the stain and scale product to the pool to allow the pump to circulate the water for approximately 30 minutes
- Broadcast across the surface of the pool, the oxidizer and allow for the pump to circulate for approximately 60 minutes
- Add the bottle of algaecide by walking around the edge of the pool and allow for chemicals to continue to circulate overnight
- The following day, test the pH and ensure that it is between 7.2 – 7.6
- Start chlorinating your pool
