The problem

Foamy water can be caused by a buildup of organic contaminants like body oils, lotions and cosmetics. It can also be caused by low CH.

Recommended solutions

Test CH and adjust to 200-500 ppm with HTH™ Calcium Up.

Preventative Maintenance

- Shower before entering the pool.

- Use an HTH™ Algaecide regularly.

- Add HTH™ Calcium Up as needed to maintain 200-500 ppm CH.

As always, we’re here to help. If you have questions, contact our help line at 1-866-HTH-POOL or talk to our experts with our live chat!

Caution

Please read the following important reminders before adding pool chemicals to water:

• NEVER mix products together or dissolve before use.

• ONLY enter pool when FAC levels are below 4 ppm to prevent risk of bodily harm.
