Is your pool starting to turn green and the water losing transparency? Algae not only ruin the appearance of the water — they also block filters, reduce chlorine effectiveness, and turn maintenance into a nightmare. Catigene PS is the professional reference non-foaming algaecide: formulated with polymeric quaternary ammonium chloride and copper sulfate, it acts on two fronts — eliminating existing algae and preventing its reappearance, while its flocculant effect groups suspended particles for perfectly crystal clear water.

Compatible with all types of filters, including diatomaceous earth, and especially suitable for soft water. The result: less maintenance, fewer products, and a pool that looks impeccable all season long.

 

✅ Why choose Catigene PS?

  • Dual action: algaecide + flocculant: Eliminates algae and clarifies water in a single treatment, without the need for additional products.
  • Non-foaming: Non-foaming formulation, ideal for recirculation systems and pools with waterfalls or jets.
  • Compatible with all filter types: Sand, cartridge, and diatomaceous earth — no restrictions or risk of clogging.
  • Ideal for soft water: Especially effective in areas with soft water where other algaecides lose performance.
  • Prevention and shock treatment: Acts both at startup (green water) and for weekly preventive maintenance.
  • Suitable for pools, spas, and ponds: Versatile use in any installation with pressurized water circulation.
  • Available in 5L and 25L: For domestic and professional use, with volume pricing for pool managers.

Frequently Asked Questions about Catigene PS

What's the difference between a foaming algaecide and a non-foaming one like Catigene PS?

Foaming algaecides can create bubbles in pools with jets, waterfalls, or active recirculation systems, which hinders filtration and water visibility. Catigene PS is non-foaming, making it suitable for any type of installation without visual side effects or problems with the filtration system.

Can I use Catigene PS as a shock treatment if the water is already green?

Yes. For water with visible algae, apply the startup dose: 1.75 L per 50 m³, preferably in the evening and with the filter system running. The flocculant effect will help group the dead particles so that the filter can remove them more easily. Supplement with chlorine for complete disinfection.

How often should I apply the maintenance algaecide?

A weekly application of 0.85 L per 50 m³ of water is recommended. Regularity is key: weekly preventive treatment prevents algae growth and significantly reduces the consumption of chlorine and other corrective products.

Is Catigene PS compatible with chlorine and other pool products?

Catigene PS is incompatible with hypochlorites (liquid chlorine) if mixed directly. Always apply the products separately, with at least 30 minutes in between and with the filter pump running to ensure proper dilution before adding the next product.
