Applied Bio 40714A Algi-Gon Algaecide (32 oz)

Part Number: 40714A

Description

A highly concentrated pool algaecide formulated with 50 % quaternary ammonium compounds (“quat”) designed to treat and inhibit green, black and mustard algae. Ideal for routine maintenance, post-shock treatment, or pool winterization.

Applications

• Treats up to approximately 60,000 gallons per works-size (with proper dosing).
• Can be used during swim season or at closing for algae prevention.
• Compatible with chlorine, bromine, or salt-sanitized pool systems.

Features & Specifications

• Concentration: 50 % quat active ingredient.
• Package size: 32 fluid ounces.
• Low dose rate: ~1.25 fl. oz per 10,000 gallons for weekly maintenance in properly balanced pools.
• Suits in-ground and above-ground pools of typical residential size (and large pools when proportional dose applied).

Dosage & Directions

• Initial dose for algae prevention or mild growth: 1.25 fl. oz per 10,000 gal.
• Heavy growth or cleanup dose: Increase proportionally (for example 2–3 fl. oz per 10,000 gal) depending on severity.
• Run the pump continuously for at least 8 hours after application and brush pool surfaces thoroughly.
• Swimmers may return after ~15 minutes of circulation (if pool chemistry within safe limits).

Use Notes

• Ensure pool water is balanced (pH 7.2-7.6, total alkalinity 80-120 ppm, calcium hardness ~200–400 ppm) prior to application for best results.
• Backwash or clean the filter as needed; algae residues will add load to the filtration system.
• This algaecide will not replace sanitizer—maintain appropriate free chlorine or bromine levels.

Maintenance Tip

Make Algi-Gon part of your seasonal maintenance plan: dose at opening, after large storms, and at closing for wide-spectrum algae protection. Regular low-dose use can reduce sanitizer demand and help avoid visible algae growth, staining or filter load issues.
