What is foaming?
Foam can be caused by applying a foaming algicide in pools with jetted returns, attached spas or water features. Foaming can also be caused by a foreign contaminant such as lotions, soaps, oil, and other organic compounds left by swimmers entering the pool or the build up or organic contaminants in the pool water. Foam should dissipate over time, but the use of anti-foaming agents will help clear the foam much more rapidly.
To eliminate foaming:
- Apply Anti Foam to get rid of foam quickly
- Add Pool Tonic to remove contaminants that may be causing the foam
To prevent foaming:
- Switch to non-foaming algicide such as Algae Complete or Banish
- Shock/oxidize routinely
