PRODUCT FAQ'S

BioGuard® offers many solutions based on your individual needs. Your Dealer will make educated recommendations after performing a water sample test. BioGuard has products such as:

  • Banish® to kill all types of swimming pool algae.
  • Spot Kill® which is formulated to kill black algae on walls.
  • Spot Kill WP which should only be used on white plaster pools is also formulated for killing black algae on walls.

Learn more about different algae types and suggested BioGuard treatments in our troubleshooting page.

Your best course of action is to take a water sample to your BioGuard Dealer. They can test your water and provide personalized instructions on the best corrective measures.

Some suggestions your dealer may provide are:

  • Lo ‘N Slo® when pH is high.
  • Strip Kwik® or Kleen It® when filter is dirty.
  • Smart Shock®, Burn Out Extreme®, Burn Out® 35, or Easy Shock and Swim® for shocking when Free Available Chlorine level is low.
  • Polysheen® Blue which is also an excellent water clarifier.

(Note: For BioGuard SoftSwim® pools, use SoftSwim Filter Aid and Flocculent.)

Sanitizing pool water kills bacteria that can be harmful to bathers and also aids in controlling algae. You need to constantly check and maintain your sanitizer level because bacteria enter the pool continuously from many sources.  BioGuard offers several chlorine/bromine based sanitizer options including our Mineral Springs® program, or explore our non-chlorine sanitizer program, SoftSwim®.

This is the active chlorine in the water that has not combined with organic matter and is therefore available for killing bacteria and algae. The proper range for free chlorine residual is 1-3 ppm. Below 1 ppm can cause swimmer irritation, cloudy water and even allow algae to grow. You should test often throughout the summer when the pool is used most.

“Shocking” your pool water chemically destroys the organic contaminants introduced by bathers and the environment.  They restore water clarity, help maintain water balance and eliminate the main causes of eye and nose irritation.

  • Pool Magnet® Plus ties up copper and iron to prevent stains.
  • Sparkle-Up® aids in removal of copper and iron from the water.
  • Stain Remover removes most stains caused by metals.
  • SoftSwim Stain Control ties up metals to prevent stains in SoftSwim pools.
