Pool Magic Blue One Shot Algaecide 2L

Pool Magic Blue One Shot Algaecide 2L is a concentrated liquid copper-based treatment engineered to eliminate existing algae blooms and prevent new growth in swimming pools. This high-strength formula disrupts the metabolic processes of various algae species, providing a fast-acting corrective solution for green or murky water while ensuring long-term protection for both chlorine and salt-water systems. Technical Specifications and Features • Formulated with a non-foaming composition that ensures water remains calm and clear without surface residue after application. • Contains active copper-triethanolamine complex designed to remain suspended in water for extended periods to provide ongoing sanitisation. • The two litre volume is specifically measured to treat standard family pools of up to fifty thousand litres in a single dose. • Safe for use with all common pool surfaces, including fibreglass, marbelite, and vinyl liners, without causing staining when used as directed. • Compatible with standard pool chemicals and filtration systems, including sand, glass, and cartridge-based filters. Ideal Use and Instructions • Best utilised when visible algae is present or when pool water begins to take on a dull, greenish tint. • Before adding the algaecide, test and adjust the potential hydrogen to between seven point two and seven point six for maximum effectiveness. • Backwash and rinse the filter system to ensure optimal water circulation before introducing the chemical. • With the pump running on the filter or circulate setting, pour the entire two litres directly into the weir for even distribution. • Keep the pump operational for a minimum of twelve to twenty-four hours to ensure the algaecide reaches every part of the pool. Safety Precautions • Store the container in an upright position in a cool, ventilated area away from direct sunlight and volatile chemicals. • Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes; if splashing occurs, wash the area immediately with large amounts of fresh water. • Highly toxic to aquatic life; do not allow the product or empty containers to enter natural waterways, ponds, or drainage systems. • Keep the bottle tightly sealed and stored in a secure location out of reach of children and domestic animals. Frequently Asked Questions • How soon can we swim? It is recommended to wait at least twenty-four hours after treatment to allow the algae to be fully neutralised. • Will it turn blonde hair green? This is a non-staining formula; however, maintaining correct potential hydrogen levels is essential to keep the minerals in suspension. • Does it work on black algae? This formula is highly effective on green and mustard algae; for established black algae, manual brushing of the spots is required before application. • Can I use this with a salt chlorinator? Yes, it is perfectly safe for salt-water systems and provides a necessary boost when the cell is struggling during high summer temperatures. Pro Tip for Local Pool Care • To save time during the peak of summer, use a pool brush to scrub the walls and floor immediately after pouring in your Blue One Shot. By manually breaking the protective outer layer of the algae colonies, you allow the liquid algaecide to penetrate the core of the bloom much faster, often cutting the clearing time in half and preventing "dead spots" in corners or around steps.
