Q: Is it safe to swim after treatment? A: Always check the label for specific re-entry instructions, but typically swimming can resume shortly after application once chemicals are distributed.
Q: How is this different from regular algaecides? A: Poolife AlgaeKill Extreme contains a stronger, more concentrated formula designed for fast kill and extended protection, making it more effective against black algae than standard treatments.

Local Benchmark Pool aka Valley Pool always has what I need whether it be solutions to problems or equipment. Polaris is expensive, but durable and reliable.

Love the idea and looks of the duck, but there was a defect around the beak area on a crease and the air escaped. Customer service was great and said they would send a replacement but I don’t know it that happened and I wanted to take this on a camping trip.
