The BioGuard 3-Step Programme offers an easy method for maintaining pool water that is clean, clear, and free of algae in just three straightforward steps.

STEP 1 – Sanitize to eliminate bacteria with Smart Tabs® Smart Tabs® Smart Tabs Smart Tabs are slow-release sanitizers, uniquely blended with SmartGuard, a compound that minimizes wear on pool surfaces and equipment. The 200g tablets, ideal for weir use, have a patented design that slows down dissolution when the pump is off. As a result, Smart Tabs can last up to twice as long as regular tablets. Typically, you’ll need to replace Smart Tabs every week.

If you prefer, you can use alternatives like Silk Tabs, Swim Tabs, Swim Clear Floater, Super Soluble, or Ultraswim for the first step.

STEP 2 – Oxidize weekly for consistently clear water with BioGuard Lite Lite BioGuard Lite BioGuard Lite is a versatile product that shocks, oxidizes, buffers, and clarifies water, ensuring it stays crystal clear. Its unique formula combats algae and bacteria, keeping your pool water inviting throughout the season. There’s no need to dissolve it first. For optimal results, use it every week.

Other products like Burn Out, Ultraswim, Super Soluble, or Oxysheen can be used for Step 2 if you prefer.

STEP 3 – Prevent Algae with Back-Up® 2

Back Up 2 Back Up 2 is an effective, wide-ranging algae inhibitor that works in conjunction with Smart Tabs and Lite to stop algae before it begins. It helps maintain clear, algae-free water. Start with an initial dose at the season’s beginning and then continue with a weekly maintenance dose. Back Up 2 remains effective and increases its algae-fighting ability as water temperatures rise, making it especially useful when your pool needs extra protection against algae. Its potent wetting agents deeply penetrate pool surfaces to target where algae begins.

For algae prevention, you can also use MSA II algaecide or Algi Shield.
