Anti-algae
For beautiful, crystal-clear water all season long
Dull water, unpleasant green colouring, slimy, slippery walls... We don't want them in our pool!
Ocedis Anti-algae products combine algistatic and aligicidal action: they deactivate the algae and destroy it by piercing its cell membrane.
Fight against algae
In your pool
Algae are living organisms that can quickly turn your pool into a veritable swamp if left unchecked.
Certain conditions favour the development of algae:
- The presence of food (phosphate, nitrogen, minerals)
- A temperature above 15°C
- A pH greater than or equal to 7.5
When these conditions are met, algae can proliferate, making the water dull and green, and the pool walls slimy and slippery.
To get rid of algae, two solutions are generally recommended:
- Shock disinfection, followed by flocculation,
- Or the use of an anti-algae product to slow down their development (algistatic action) and facilitate their destruction (algicidal action).

Did you know?
Prevention is the best strategy for controlling algae in your pool. By maintaining good water circulation, regularly cleaning the walls and bottom of your pool and regularly testing the water quality, you can prevent algae proliferation before it becomes a problem.
Phosphate
A key factor in the proliferation of algae
Phosphate is a form of food for algae.
It is released by algae when they die, but it can also be present in garden fertilisers, household detergents and even naturally in the water in small quantities in the form of phosphorus. The higher the phosphate concentration in the water, the faster the algae can multiply.
This can lead to over-consumption of disinfectant and, ultimately, render the treatment ineffective at the recommended concentrations, as the algae multiply faster than they are eliminated.
To deal with this problem, we recommend eliminating all algae with a shock treatment of unstabilised chlorine (PCH Granulate) or stabilised chlorine (CHLORE CHOC 20 g or CHLORE RAPIDE V60), followed by the ANTI-PHOSPHATE product.
