RX Ball and Phosphate Treatments

Some pool needs to be treated for algae with an RX Ball. The purpose of the product is to help eliminate algae in the pool that chlorine alone is unable to do. It also helps with the pool water quality and to eliminate yellow algae that are still present after attempts to rid with proper pool chemistry and chlorine and shock alone.

Phosphate Treatment: Pool phosphates are determined by a special testing. They are found in fertilizer or decaying leaves/grass, and are airborne and cause algae. To treat the pool, we do an initial application and leave the bottle in order to do a maintenance dosage until the bottle is used up. This will last a couple of months and we will retest at that time.

RX Ball: This is a pool mineral system is in the form of a ball that goes in the skimmer basket or pool pump pot (preferred due to better water flow). When emptying the basket/pool pump pot, be sure you do not throw this away. A filter clean must be done within two months of putting in the product to be fully effective. The filter pressure may go up slightly, which is normal. The filter cannot be backwashed for three weeks or it will wash out these valuable minerals.
