SeaKlear PhosKlear 4000 (90265SKR) is a highly effective 32-ounce liquid phosphate remover formulated to eliminate high phosphate levels that fuel algae growth in pools. Using a powerful lanthanum-based blend, it rapidly binds and drops phosphates out of the water so they can be filtered away, helping restore clear, stable water conditions. Ideal for routine treatment or addressing elevated phosphate spikes, PhosKlear 4000 works with all pool types and sanitizers and can be added directly to the water. Its concentrated formula delivers strong results with minimal product, improving water clarity, reducing algae pressure, and helping your sanitizer perform more efficiently.

Instructions
Treatment Dose:
Use the dosage chart below to determine how much SeaKlear PhosKlear 4000 to add based on your pool size and current phosphate level. For example, a 10,000 gallon pool with 1,000 ppb of phosphates should be treated with 8 oz of product.
Dosage Chart
| Phosphate Level (ppb) | 5,000 Gallon Pool | 10,000 Gallon Pool |
|---|---|---|
| 250 | 1 oz | 2 oz |
| 500 | 2 oz | 2 oz |
| 1,000 | 4 oz | 8 oz |
| 2,000 | 8 oz | 16 oz |
| 4,000 | 16 oz | 32 oz |
Initial Phosphate Treatment:
Clean or backwash the filter before starting. Use the chart above to measure the correct amount of product. Pour the PhosKlear 4000 evenly across the pool surface. If the water is still cloudy after 24 hours, apply SeaKlear Chitosan Clarifier at 2 oz per 5,000 gallons. Run the filtration system continuously for at least 24 hours. If the filter pressure rises 10 psi above normal, clean or backwash the filter. After 48 hours, test phosphate levels with a swimming pool phosphate test kit and reapply product if needed.
Weekly Dose:
Add 2 oz of SeaKlear PhosKlear 4000 per 10,000 gallons weekly to help maintain low phosphate levels and keep the water clear.
Important:
Temporary cloudiness is normal while phosphates are being removed. The water may stay hazy for up to 24 hours depending on phosphate levels and filtration performance. Swimming should be avoided until the water clears. If desired, use SeaKlear Chitosan Clarifier at 2 oz per 5,000 gallons to speed up water clarity.

Is this the right option for sudden phosphate spikes?
Yes — this concentrated formula is ideal for pools with high phosphate levels that need fast removal. Staff can help calculate dosage in store based on your gallonage.
Will this product work with my existing sanitizer?
Yes, PhosKlear 4000 is compatible with chlorine, salt, mineral, and alternative systems and won’t interfere with standard sanitizers.
Applying the Product, Behavior in Water & Filter Expectations
These questions explain how PhosKlear 4000 works once added to the pool.
Does the water cloud up after adding phosphate remover?
A slight haze can appear temporarily as phosphates bind and get filtered out. Running the pump continuously and cleaning the filter after treatment speeds up clearing.
Where should I pour the product for best results?
Pour it around the pool perimeter or directly in front of a return while the pump is running. Avoid pouring into the skimmer with a cartridge system to reduce filter loading.
How long does it take to see improvement?
Most pools show clarity improvement within 12–48 hours depending on phosphate levels and filter condition.
In-Store Pickup, Troubleshooting & Treatment Planning
These questions help customers prepare for their visit to Discount Pool Mart.
Is PhosKlear 4000 usually available for same-day pickup?
Yes — DPM locations regularly stock SeaKlear products, especially during algae season. Calling ahead with the SKU ensures availability.
Should I retest my water after treatment?
Yes, retesting confirms phosphate reduction and helps determine whether a follow-up dose is needed.
Should I buy backup filter elements or cleaner?
Removing phosphates generates extra filter debris. If your filter is old or overdue for cleaning, purchasing cleaner or media during your visit may help improve results.
