Topic: Algaecide


In the News (Sat 28 Nov 09)

  
  What is Algaecide?
Algaecide is a chemical treatment for swimming pools, fish ponds and other 'water features' that kills algae.
When you use an algaecide in your swimming pool, it allows you to use less chlorine for water purification, resulting in water than is more pleasant to swim in, without the stinging eyes and nose that too much chlorine can cause.
Regular use of algaecide also prolongs the life of your water filtration systems, as there is less plant material to clog the filters and intakes of your pump.

Quat algaecides are regarded as weak and applicable only with a low algae infestation.
Quat algaecides are sold in concentrations of up to 20% active ingredient (quaternary ammonium salts), polyquat algaecides have concentrations up to 60%.
The final result of the algaecide use is nothing less then the beginning of new and often more severe algae growth due to the increased water pollution.

 AOS Message Board
I was told that using diluted pool algaecide helps with algae growth.
Renee, the stuff I've seen sold as swimming pool algaecide was roughly "half-strength" of what Physan 20 is. Physan 20 is 10% quaternary ammonium choride while the swimming pool stuff was 5%, it also had a dark blue dye in it which might stain stuff you use it on.
I might add that the swimming pool algaecide is not labeled for use on orchids or as a pesticide, like Physan 20 is, so I cannot legally recommend its use as such.
