BioGuard® SoftSwim Filter Aid - 1 lb.

Overview

BioGuard Soft Swim Filter Aid is a powerful flocculant clarifier that is designed to work specifically with any Soft Swim-equipped pools, rapidly eliminating cloudy or hazy water to restore it to its former brilliance. Its granular formula attracts together any microscopic particles in the water, making them heavy enough to settle on the pool bottom for quick vacuum removal. It can also be used to improve filter efficiency, restoring water to the jewel-like clarity you remember. Best of all, Soft Swim Filter Aid is made right here in the USA to ensure quality, allowing you to buy with confidence.

If the pool does not clear, backwash the filter and repeat as necessary. If the pressure gauge increases 8 to 10 psi above the original pressure, backwash and rinse filter appropriately. Resume routine maintenance schedule.
