Frequently Asked Questions
What is Algaecide 60, and what does the "60" mean?
Algaecide 60 contains 60% of a powerful, non-foaming, metal-free algaestat that effectively prevents and kills algae. It is safe for use in all types of pools and helps keep your water clear without causing foam or staining.
How often should I use Doheny's Algaecide 60 for prevention?
We recommend using Doheny's Algaecide 60 weekly as a preventative measure to keep algae growth under control. Adjust the dosage based on your pool's size and water conditions for optimal results.
Can Algaecide 60 be used to kill existing algae, or is it just a preventative?
While primarily known as a highly effective preventative, higher "shock" dosages of Algaecide 60 can also be used to kill existing algae, especially green algae. For severe blooms, it's usually part of a multi-step treatment involving shocking the pool first.
Is Algaecide 60 safe for all pool surfaces, including vinyl liners?
Yes, Algaecide 60 is generally considered safe for all pool surfaces, including vinyl, plaster, and fiberglass, because it is metal-free and non-staining. This makes it a popular choice for broad use.
Can Algaecide 60 cause foaming in my pool?
No, a key benefit of Algaecide 60 is that it is formulated to be non-foaming. This makes it a preferred choice over some other algaecide types that can cause sudsing, especially in pools with water features or strong circulation.
