No Phosphate - No Algae - No Worries
Phosphate is an essential nutrient or food supply for all types of algae in swimming pools. A high level of phosphate makes it easy for algae to thrive.
Removing the phosphate from the water makes it harder for algae to grow as you are essentially starving them of food. This is essentially what Lo-Chlor
Starver does.
Starver is a naturally occurring rare earth mineral. The Lanthanum Carbonate chemically bonds to the phosphate and is then removed by the pools filtration
system.
Keeping your pool water free of phosphate will help reduce your chlorine consumption, as chlorine is only required to control bacteria and organic contaminants
rather than algae.
