Pool Care Systems
Pool Care Systems
Each BioGuard® Care System has three important parts that help you maintain crystal blue sparkling water.
- A sanitizer to kill bacteria
- A shock to destroy contaminants
- A preventative algaecide to stop algae before it starts
Products that are part of the “BioGuard Care System” will have the “BioGuard Care System” badge. All other products will have a “when to use” badge, such as “As Needed” or “Test and Add.”
