Sanosil Algicide

Sanosil Algicide (CID) is a polymeric, cationic algicide for use in swimming pools. It is effective against both the green free floating algal species and the so called black algae that cling to the walls and bottoms of pools.

The regular use of Sanosil Algicide in swimming pools can overcome the problems caused by algae, problems such as unsightly appearance, murky water, objectionable odours, clogged filters and increased Sanosil Pool demand.

Sanosil Algicide is effective at all pH values, and unlike the commonly employed quaternary ammonium compounds, it will not cause foam even when added in high concentration slug doses. Also Sanosil Algicide will not interfere with the efficient operation of sand filters or other types of commonly used filters.
