The periodic use of this product will increase water quality immediately, return filter performance to a higher filtration quality, and lower operating costs.
Note: For pools with erosion type chlorinators, always close the inlet valve to the chlorinator or remove the chlorinator canister from the unit when using filter cleaning chemicals.
