Temperature 90-105 degrees plus rainy weekend equals algae. Used Clorox algae remover and clarifier, within two days, I got my beautiful blue clear water back.

XtraBlue Algaecide

This is a product, that you use weekly as part of a regular maintenance routine. You have to brush surfaces weekly to remove dirt and debris that can cause algae. Miracle in a bottle! Fast and very easy to use.

Green to Blue

This is an affordable algicide, Its quick to work and when used as preventative maintenance, the bottle lasts months. I also use their phosphate remover and I think that works to prevent the algae before it starts. Sometimes I forget to add the Phosphate remover because its expensive and this is the fix.

So opening my pool this spring it was green. Thank you so much for the Algaecide. My pool went from green to clean a beautiful blue. And it didn’t take long, it literally took about 3-4 days with my pump running 24hrs. It really works.

No more algae problems

I have been using XtraBlue Algaecide for a few months now and I am very happy with the results. It keeps my pool water clear and free of algae, even in the hot and humid weather. It is easy to use, just follow the instructions on the label and add the right amount every week. It does not affect the pH or chlorine levels of my pool, and it does not stain or foam. It is also safe for my family and pets, as it is made of natural ingredients that do not harm the environment. I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants to enjoy a clean and healthy pool.

Effective Algaecide

We’ve owned our pool for three seasons now. I have used other algaecide products once or twice out of convenience but have come back to Clorox asap. The packaging is good and easy to store.

Keeping my pool algae free

I have a 16×10 above ground pool in central texas that we put up every summer. I have an algae bloom in the pool due to the excessive heat and me traveling. I was very happy when I followed the directions in the Clorox app and this Clorox Algaecide and it cleared up. Last year I struggled with a brand from the local pool supply house and had trouble balancing my pool. With the Clorox system (Clorox app to tell me how much algaecide to use) I am guided and find it easy to keep my pool clean and fun. Because it has been easy, I keep putting the pool up every summer, which is great with these 100 degree temps.

Highly Effective Algaecide for a Sparkling Pool!

I recently purchased the Clorox Pool & Spa XtraBlue Algaecide, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations in every way. This product is an absolute game-changer when it comes to keeping my pool free from algae. Let me share my experience. First and foremost, the Clorox Pool & Spa XtraBlue Algaecide is incredibly effective. Within just a few days of using it, I noticed a significant reduction in algae growth. Not only did it eliminate the existing algae, but it also prevented new growth from occurring. My pool has never looked so clear and pristine! Another aspect that impressed me is the ease of use. The instructions provided were straightforward and easy to follow. I simply measured the required amount of algaecide based on the size of my pool, and then added it to the water. No complicated processes or excessive mixing required. The product quickly dissolves and disperses evenly throughout the water, ensuring maximum coverage and effectiveness. Furthermore, the Clorox Pool & Spa XtraBlue Algaecide does not negatively affect the pH levels or other chemical balances of my pool. This was a concern I had initially, but I’m glad to report that it seamlessly integrates into my existing pool maintenance routine without causing any disruptions. I also appreciate the long-lasting effects of this algaecide. With some products, algae seems to make a swift comeback after a short period. However, with the XtraBlue Algaecide, I have experienced prolonged protection against algae growth. It provides lasting results, which saves me both time and money in the long run. Last but not least, the Clorox brand itself is synonymous with quality and reliability. I have been using their products for various cleaning purposes, and this algaecide reinforces my trust in their brand. Knowing that I have a dependable and trusted solution to keep my pool algae-free gives me peace of mind. In conclusion, the Clorox Pool & Spa XtraBlue Algaecide deserves a resounding five-star rating. Its remarkable effectiveness, ease of use, compatibility with pool maintenance routines, long-lasting effects, and the trust associated with the Clorox brand make it an exceptional choice. If you’re looking for an algaecide that delivers on its promises, I highly recommend giving this product a try. You won’t be disappointed!

It is the cure

I was struggling with some algae growth that chlorine was not removing. Our water is alkaline and sometimes it is hard to balance the ph. I use as much ph down as anything else. Usually I send in the images of the test strips on the app and follow the recommendations. This year I tried the algae product and BAM over night all cleared and hasn’t been back.

This is our Go-to Algacide!

We just opened our pool and needed to apply a good algaecide to get sparkling water. One of the main benefits of this products is it kills ALL types of pool algae from the green to the mustard to the black. No need to buy several different products. The product does not foam when you put it in the water and it does not stain our vinyl liner. This product also works really quickly and the instructions are super easy to follow. No guesswork. We plan to continue using this product weekly as a maintenance step in our pool care. As you can see, I love this product for many reasons. I am definitely recommending this product to everyone.

First off, with any algaecide, make sure to shock and balance your pool before application. I’ve tried many algaecides in the past which made little difference. With the Clorox algaecide, I followed the application instructions to tackle an algae problem in my pool. Within a week, all the algae had died and after I vacuum, my pool was looking crystal clear again.

Did exactly what it was made for!

I finally got my pool up and running but the water was pretty dirty with a lot of algae. I received XtraBlue Algaecide and decided to see if it would work. It does a really great job! It made my life a lot easier than having to continue vacuuming the pool. I followed the directions and within a couple hours, my pool was clear again. Very happy with this product.

Love this Algaecide

Living in the Florida heat and rain I could (and have) battled algae all summer long. This product tackles the problem. I don’t have to buy a lot of different products. This product does it all.

Best Algicide Made

Destroys algicide and makes the water crystal in almost overnight. I live it the deep south we’re it is hot and humid, adding clorox extra blue to my above ground pool prior to leaving for a week or more and leaving the pump and filter off, keeps my pool crystal clear for my return.

Fantastic Solution for Algae Outbreaks!

Here in North Texas, the hot summer sun can warm pools to the point of algae bloom. When that happens, one dose of this XtraBlue Algaecide is all you need to have clear, blue water once again! Think of it as a mega-shock. You just loosen all the algae from around the walls of the pool with a coarse brush and then treat with this wondrous product, and your problem is solved very quickly.
