Swimmer Longlife Copper Free Wintertime Algicide 5L

Product Overview

As a retailer of hot tub spare parts and maintenance products, I’m pleased to present this specialized winter-grade algicide – a professional-strength solution engineered specifically for cold-weather pool protection. This copper-free formulation provides extended protection during the challenging winter months when regular maintenance may be reduced.

Winter Protection Technology

Unlike standard algicides, this winter-specific formula features enhanced stability at lower temperatures and provides long-lasting residual protection. The concentrated 5L size is ideal for winter-long coverage, ensuring your pool remains protected throughout the dormant season.

Key Benefits

• Extended-release formula specifically designed for winter conditions
• Copper-free technology prevents metal staining and scale formation
• Higher concentration for lasting winter protection
• Effective against winter-resistant algae strains
• Safe for all pool surfaces and equipment
• Prevents spring startup algae blooms
• Reduces winter maintenance requirements

Technical Information

This professional-grade winter algicide uses advanced quaternary ammonium compounds that maintain effectiveness even in cold temperatures. The concentrated formula is specifically balanced to provide sustained protection during periods of reduced filtration and maintenance.

Application & Usage

Proper winter application is crucial for season-long protection:

Winter Preparation Dose:

• Add 500ml per 10,000L of pool water
• Apply during final winterization
• Ensure complete circulation before covering
• Can be used with winter covering solutions

Mid-Winter Maintenance:

• Additional dosing typically not required
• If pool remains uncovered, apply 250ml per 10,000L monthly
• Check levels during periodic winter maintenance

Severe Conditions Treatment:

• For harsh winter environments, increase initial dose to 750ml per 10,000L
• Ideal for areas with heavy rainfall or snow
• Perfect for pools under mesh covers
