Phosphate treatment has really caught on in the pool industry in recent years, but what are the phosphates and why you should be worried.
One of the major concerns of others, and because phosphate much more frequently than it was even just 4 years, is that a high level of phosphates in a pool a significant impact on saltwater chlorination have the power.
Phosphates are one of the key ingredients found in fertilizer. Since the algaeis a simple plant, the presence of phosphates in water affect the difficulty of controlling algae in your pool is. Phosphates as they are, the harder it is to kill and control algae in your pool. Thus, the increased use of phosphate treatments.
If you find that 1) the pump is running a lot of time and are turning the pool at least once a day 1, 2) have a lot of free chlorine in the pool, and 3) yourPH and alkalinity are balanced, but you still have an algae problem ... then it is probably time to verify the presence of phosphates.
So what do you do?
There are simple tests that are performed to assess if the processing of phosphate are needed, and the approximate concentration of phosphates in water. There are redundant tests, cards, and test strips available to say exactly what are your readings phosphate. We found the test strips are quite precise, and by far theThe easiest tests to run and analyze.
I personally prefer not to have phosphates in water, but in reality we are not using a rule-phosphate treatments, reaching about 250 ppb. Phosphate treatment includes the insertion of phosphate chemicals in the pool, usually goes through the skimmer when the pool pump. This breaks the chemical rapidly around the pool, so as to maximize their effect. The chemical precipitation of phosphates from water,and fall to the bottom of the tank where they can be extracted. Usually it is recommended to run the pool pump for 24 - 36 hours continuously during this long process that accelerate progress.
Once the process is completed, the filter must be disassembled and thoroughly cleaned (and not fun) process.
Usually we recommend a further test is performed to confirm that all the phosphates were removed from the water.
Not all phosphate treatmentssame! There are huge differences in effectiveness between different brands. Read the instructions carefully and compare them to see the strengths, which are the most effective. These chemicals are not cheap, but if applied properly the result is a pool that much easier to maintain throughout the year. Receive the pool for a good start this season, and see if you can use the treatment of phosphate.
