How To Remove Phosphates From Pool

[@tejanoinexile]

Why wouldn't you treat for phosphates? Its algae food. Good looking pool, nice job.

Thank you!

Please visit my channel or suscribe for more details on parts of this video such as the process for cleaning your cartridge filter and how the handheld vacuum works.

[@larios86]

Can you give me the item information for the vacuum you use please.

[@poolcareshare]

It's called a Pool Blaster Catfish Ultra. I think it runs for around $150. Purchased it online.

Did you have visible algae in the pool before you did the treatment and did you leave it in the pool so the treatment killed it? Then vaccumed it out once the algae was dead? 🙂

[@poolcareshare]

There was no visible algae. I took a water sample to the pool store for testing. You can buy a phosphate test kit to test at home. I waited 48 hours after the treatment before vacuuming using the handheld vacuum and cleaning the cartridge filter.

Did you retreat with your phunky phosphate remover?​@@poolcareshare

As long as chlorine is maintained, algae will not develop. Mine was at 2000 and no problem, but if chlorine goes low, I guess you're in trouble.

just wanted to say bravo for resisting the overpriced Leslie's NoPHOS chemical.

[@poolcareshare]

I’ve used the Leslie’s brand as well. But this one in the video is way better!

Mine are only at 145 and I thought that was high

[@poolcareshare]

145 is not too bad at all! My phosphates are constantly rising. Maybe related to the hose water I use to top off (even though I use an RV filter), the rain water or other factors.

I just have low alkalinity
