Overview

Pool Mate Metal Free is a concentrated metal-out and mineral inhibitor designed to help keep pool water clear by binding trace minerals that can discolor water or promote staining and scale. This two-pack of one-quart bottles provides practical, ready-to-use treatment for openings, closings, and ongoing seasonal care.

By sequestering metals such as iron, calcium, manganese, and copper, it helps reduce the chance of unsightly discoloration and supports smoother water circulation. The formula acts as a general purpose sequestrant, offering protective benefits for both plumbing and pool walls without relying on harsh claims.

Key benefits

  • 1 quart treats up to 10,000 gallons of water for scalable use
  • Sequesters metals like iron, calcium, manganese, copper, and other minerals
  • Aims to prevent discoloration caused by metals and minerals in the water supply
  • Acts as a general sequestrant to help protect plumbing and pool walls from rust, stain, and scale
  • Suitable for use at pool openings, closings, and throughout the season as needed

When to use

  • During all pool openings and closings and for ongoing seasonal maintenance
  • When initial filling suggests metallic contaminants in the water
  • For backwash or splash-out losses, re-dose as needed (one quart per 20,000 gallons per month)

How to use

Openings and ongoing maintenance: add one quart per 10,000 gallons of water and allow it to circulate. If color issues arise, temporarily close the pool to swimmers, keep the pump running, drop chlorine to zero, lower the pH to about 6.8, circulate overnight, then add one quart per 10,000 gallons and re-balance the pH to 7.2–7.8 before resuming normal chlorination.

After backwashing or splash-out: re-dose at one quart per 20,000 gallons of water to help maintain mineral control throughout the season.

Note: This description summarizes usage scenarios and benefits based on the product data. Results can vary with pool chemistry, water source, and maintenance practices.
