Note A: Chemicals alone will not completely prevent algae growth. The filter must run daily, generally 8 hours during warmer months and 4 hours during winter. Regular cleaning and brushing of the pool, keeping the surrounding vegetation and/or dirt out of the pool, along with regular filter cleanings, phosphate treatments and daily filtration is essential in the prevention of algae. Phosphate and Stain Control treatments cost extra. Salt pools will be charged once a year for salt at end of rainy season.
