Product Details

Compatibility and Requirements

BioGuard Optimizer is made for swimming pool water care and is compatible with BioGuard Pool Care Systems. It can be used as part of a routine pool maintenance program to support softer-feeling water, better clarity, and improved overall water quality.

Before applying Optimizer, pool water should be tested and balanced. Clean or backwash the filter before treatment, and only add the product when the pump and circulation system are running. Do not directly combine BioGuard Optimizer with any other pool chemical.

How to Use

Before adding BioGuard Optimizer, test and balance your pool water. Clean or backwash the filter so the circulation system is ready for treatment.

With the pump and circulation system running, slowly add BioGuard Optimizer into the pool skimmer. Allow the pool water to circulate for 4 to 8 hours after application. Do not add Optimizer to the skimmer unless circulation is clearly visible.

For initial treatment, published directions reference 1.5 lb per 1,000 gallons of pool water. For best results, follow the product label and use a current water test to determine the correct amount for your pool.
