A:  Aprox. 750000

A:  Based on my online research, flocculant is not as mild as clarifier. If your pool is really cloudy, consider flocculant (one treatment) vs several clarifier treatments. Also, flocculant is faster acting 24 hours vs. several days.

A:  With my pool it works together to drop all small particles to bottom while clarifying pool water .

A:  Same here...had horrible green and laaves in bottom after winter cover was blown off in storm...I got all the leaves I could, then brushed, then shocked ,then clarified with clarifier/flocculant..now it's all in bottom, just have to vacuum...no pool guy just a nanny trying to get it for summer gbabies!

A:  Based on my internet research, shock the pool (i.e. kill the algae). It is recommended you shock the pool, sustain that for a few days until the water is no longer green. Then while the chlorine levels are still high (see flocculent directions) flock the pool. I've successfully completed a flocking in the past. Sometimes it take more than the 12 hours, but should see good results within the 24 hours. The amount you add seems a little small, but it is enough.

A:  You have to brush the pool down and shock it immediately afterwards. Hit it with a really good amount of shock. Raise the free chlorine levels to around 5-10 ppm and run the filter continuously for at least a day or 2. Brush the pool down at least once a day during this part of the process. Monitor the filter pressure and backwash as needed. Once the algae is dead and the water still doesn't clear up then use the floc. Floc should only be used if cloudiness persist for days with no signs of getting better. Balance water chemistry and then add the algaecide. High chlorine levels will burn up the algaecide.
