Pool Magic Microshock Algaecide 1L

Pool Magic Microshock Algaecide 1L is a concentrated liquid chemical treatment formulated to eliminate existing algae growth and prevent future infestations in swimming pools. This fast-acting solution serves as an effective non-chlorine shock, breaking down organic contaminants and restoring water clarity without affecting the pool’s pH balance or causing surface staining. Product Specifications and Benefits • Dual-Action Formula functions as both an active algaecide to kill visible blooms and a preventative measure to inhibit spore development. • Non-Metal Based chemistry ensures that the product will not cause unsightly metallic staining on fibreglass, marblelite, or vinyl pool linings. • PH Neutral Properties mean that adding this treatment will not require additional corrective chemicals to re-balance your water chemistry. • Concentrated Liquid Format allows for immediate dispersion throughout the water column, reaching difficult areas like steps and light niches quickly. Ideal Use and Application • Routine Maintenance involves adding a monthly dose of five hundred millilitres per fifty thousand litres of water to keep algae at bay during peak summer. • Active Algae Treatment requires a double dose applied directly to the affected areas while the pump is running on the filter or circulate setting. • Pre-Storm Dosing is highly effective in South Africa to prevent the rapid algae growth that often follows heavy afternoon thunderstorms and high nitrogen levels. Safety and Storage Precautions • Chemical Handling dictates that the product should be poured close to the water surface to avoid splashing onto skin, clothing, or garden plants. • Eye and Skin Protection are recommended; in case of accidental contact, rinse the affected area immediately with large amounts of fresh water. • Storage Guidelines require the bottle to be stored upright in a cool, shaded area away from oxidisers and out of reach of children and domestic animals.
