Overview
Pool Mate is a concentrated, ready-to-use formula designed to chelate minerals that naturally occur in many water supplies. By binding metals such as iron and manganese, it helps reduce staining and water discoloration while remaining compatible with chlorine, algaecides, and stabilizers. Regular use supports clear water and surfaces, without requiring changes to your usual pool routine.
This product is formulated to work with standard pool chemistries and is produced in the United States. It aims to minimize mineral-related issues that can arise after chlorine additions or shock treatments, offering a practical option for ongoing maintenance rather than a one-time fix.
Why mineral control matters
Trace metals can interact with chemicals in your pool, leading to visible staining or color changes. Chelating minerals helps keep water appearance consistent and surfaces looking cleaner over time, especially in areas with iron- or manganese-rich supply water.
How to use Pool Mate
- New pools or pool openings: add 1.5 oz per 1,000 gallons before other chemicals; recirculate until evenly distributed.
- Discolored water: if metals are present, add 1.5 oz per 1,000 gallons; test pH and adjust to 7.2–7.6; recirculate thoroughly.
- Scale build-up: add 0.75 oz per 1,000 gallons; recirculate for at least 6 hours; to prevent recurrence, dose 1–2 oz per 5,000 gallons weekly.
