Swimming Pool Algae Prevention – Phosphate Removal Service for Sarasota, Bradenton & Venice
Just mention the words “algae” or “phosphates” to a Sarasota pool owner and watch the color drain from their face. By far, the biggest problem pool owners in Florida have to contend with is algae. Once algae starts blooming, removing it can be a roller coaster ride. We’ve had many of our clients call us saying they thought their efforts were successful, just to see the algae return. What many people don’t realize is the reason many pools have continual algae problems is due to the presence of phosphates.
What causes algae in pools?
Phosphates are the primary food for algae. For many Florida pool owners, it’s not a matter of if they’ll ever have an algae problem, it’s when. You see, phosphates enter pool water via your sweat, the detergent on your clothes, soil, plant matter, urine, and fecal matter. While some of these causes are preventable, many aren’t. After all, most of us take a quick dip into the pool in order to stop sweating and cool off. Also phosphates are a huge reason why community and hotel pools are so diligent when it comes to waste removal. Nothing says getting bad ratings, or a visit from the health inspector like a pool filled with algae.
Why Chlorine Isn’t the Answer
In the past, if you needed to get algae removed, a pool cleaning company would simply charge you for adding chlorine and algaecide to your pool. However, if you don’t remove the phosphates, the chances of algae blooms coming back is very high.
Why Algae Prevention Makes Sense
The goal of any pool owner is to be able to enjoy their pool whenever they please and without any hassles. The presence of algae throws a huge monkey wrench into that goal. A pool filled with algae is unattractive and, if not handled correctly, costs more money to treat. Controlling and removing phosphates is the best way to ensure you can use your pool throughout the year without having to worry.
