The Bio-Dex Skill-It Pool Algaecide 32 oz SK132 is a fast-acting, non-metallic algaecide designed to eliminate resistant algae types such as black, mustard, and green algae. It is highly effective in treating stubborn algae while being safe for use without causing staining or altering pool pH. This algaecide can be applied directly to the water and requires only a small amount for treatment—typically around 5 oz per 10,000 gallons of water for a breakout dose. Additionally, it helps prevent future algae growth when used as part of regular pool maintenance​. For best results, it's recommended to brush the pool and vacuum any debris before applying the product.

Directions

Ensure all pool equipment is working properly. Backwash the filter system following manufacturers directions. Adjust pH between 7.2 - 7.6. Adjust chlorine residual to 1-3 ppm. In a chlorine treated pool, add stabilizer to establish minimum 40-50 ppm to reduce the degrading effects of sunlight upon the chlorine residual. Check for metals and if present add stain and scale inhibitor to prevent staining due to metals. Add this product directly to the pool by pouring around the entire perimeter of the pool. Allow the filter to run for at least 6 hours after adding algaecide. During this period, swimmers must not be allowed in the water.

Initial application

1. Backwash the filter thoroughly.
2. Vacuum algae debris and thoroughly brush pool.
3. Add 12.8 oz. of this product to each 25,000 gal. of water {(5.12 oz. per 10,000 gal.)}.
4. Vacuum pool after 24 hours to remove dead algae.
5. If algae is still visible repeat dose (steps 3 & 4) as necessary until pool is free of visible algae.
6. Allow the filter to run for at least six (6) hours after adding algaecide. During this period, swimmers must not be allowed into the water.
7. Once algae are under control, clean filter and return to normal operation.

Maintenance Application:
Add 6.4 oz. of this product per 50,000 gal. of water {(or equivalent use dilution)} 5-7 days depending on weather and use factors. After each rain of consequence, add 6.4 oz. per 50,000 gal. water. Even when the pool may not be in use for periods of time, algaecide additions must be made since a heavy accumulation of algae growth is difficult to remove. The appropriate amount of this product must be added by pouring a portion of the specified amount into several areas of the pool until the required quantity has been added. Recirculation accomplished by running the filter will assure rapid dispersion of product.
