SeaKlear AquaPill AP70 SpringPill Swimming Pool Start Up Pill

Good product quick delivery

Purchased in fall, going to use next year to open our pool. If you purchase in spring it's higher. I will store it inside until spring. Instructions are included, it's really easy to use Last year we used just 1. This next year we will use two. I think it will do better. Our pool is 16' x 32'. It gets the pool started for chemicals, but it doesn't kill all the algae. Quantity of one in a plastic container is what you receive.

Pool is clear as a bell...even though the pump and filter are not working right now...

This super pill worked great with my pool start up! It usually takes a couple of weeks for me to get the pool clean enough to start swimming by using a standard start up kit. But this pill really gave it a head start! I first got the PH up, did a starting dose of algaecide, put in a needed dose of stablizer and then started the pill. The directions said to poke a hole in the designated spot using a little tool they provide, abd then sit it in the filter basket. The only problem we had was that after it sat all morning the level in the pill, didn't change. So my husband ended up making the hole bigger so it would come out. I put a starting dose of clorine and the clarifier. We could see a big difference in a couple of days in the clarity of the water. By the end of the week we were able to get in! I've never had a pool opening go so quicky! I would have given a 5 star if not for the need to enlarge the hole to get it to come out. But I'm more than satisfied with the effectiveness of the chemicals!

Dropped in skinner, pool was clear as I used the winter pill to close. Added a bag of shock let my pump circulate for 24 hours and took water to pool store to get test and levels were perfect! Already added to my list to reorder for next spring!

Awful. If you are opening a pool this is just a razle/dazzle you ball,ugh! I popped the hole on bottom and placed into my skimmer as instructed. Come back in the morning and the ball has the liquid in it but more diluted, turns out, SeaKlear AquaPills (including SummerPill and SpringPill) are designed for maintenance, clarification, and stain/scale prevention, not as a primary sanitizer or to handle heavy algae. They lack significant amounts of sanitizer (chlorine) and oxidizers required to actually clean a pool, which are shown in the SeaKlear AquaPill WinterPill YouTube video. You will need to add your own sanitizer (shock) to achieve proper water sanitization Just buy the real deal opening kit. I am literally, going thru hell, trying to balance out my pool... Never again on razzle me dazzle me pool item. Especially, when our pool and family and summer fun is too important to us!

It works well. You don't really need instructions and you don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure this out. However, it would be helpful to have the little blue pin to pop the hole in the back. All of these similar systems tend to be missing the little blue pin. I have learned to save mine from past ones. So the instructions are as followed: Shake the ball vigorously for several seconds, this combines the chemicals inside. Next, turn it upside down and use the blue pin. If you happen to have 1. Pop the bottom hole, there's a little circle with an indent, see the picture. If you do not happen to have a blue pin that is supposed to come with the package. You can use a nail and a hammer to do so. You will know you successfully have a hole when there are some chemicals dripping out, it will not be fast, it will be a drip. Last step throw the ball into the pool and let it float, run with the pump until the ball is completely empty. Note: Do not swim with the ball in the pool.

Mine came missing the pin needed to puncture the seal. But I have tools and was ingenuity, so I was able ro make due and get it punctured. The product works well. Now it should come with the punctering device. But I'm still giving it 5 stars.

Needed two of these Spring Pills to open the pool, and it quickly cleaned up the water within hours. Will do again next year.

Might work in southern Climates!!
