- Improves Water Clarity
No metal stains in your water or on your pool surfaces means a clean and clear pool for you and your family to enjoy.
Metal stains can not only be unsightly and unpleasant to look at, but, if left untreated, they can damage the surface that is stained. This is why it is important to prevent metal stains before they ever show up. MetalFree Stain Preventer is an all-natural, non-toxic stain preventer, designed to be used when filling a new pool or replacing pool water. By adding the MetalFree to new water, metals like copper and iron never have a chance to stain your pool!
Preventing a metal stain is much easier than removing a stain. Removing a stain can take many different products and hours of tedious brushing and scrubbing. MetalFree Stain Preventer is the easiest way to keep these stains out of your pool, and, unlike many stain preventers, will not add any phosphates to your water. Phosphates are organic contaminants that serve as the main food source for algae; without phosphates, algae cannot grow. MetalFree Stain Preventer keeps the stains and algae out, and creates a clean and safe environment for swimmers.
Does your pool suffer from ugly brown or green metal stains? Have other metal removers filled your pool with algae-causing phosphates? For these problems and more, look no further than MetalFree Stain Prevention!

Features
Metals can enter your pool through a variety of different ways. Often times, small amounts of metals such as copper, iron, magnesium, and calcium are present in fill water used to fill a swimming pool. Well water contains an even higher concentration of these metals than other types of fill water. Pool equipment, such as skimmers and metal ladders, also give off small amounts of metal into the water.
The metals from these various sources can add up over time, causing you problems with stained walls and equipment. MetalFree Stain Prevention is a powerful and effective way of eliminating stain and scale before it ever even happens. The all-natural chemicals in MetalFree prevent stains by blocking the reactive sites on the dissolved metals in the water, which stops the metals from combining with other surfaces and creating stains.

How do I keep metals out of my pool?
- There is no way to keep metals completely out of a pool. Metals can enter a pool through fill water, through rain water, and through pool equipment, and these metals can cause stains unless treated with products like MetalFree Stain Prevention.
How much MetalFree should I use?
- For the first treatment, it is recommended to use 32 fl. ounces of MetalFree for every 20,000 gallons of water. After the first treatment, the dosage reduces to 16 fl. ounces for every 20,000 gallons.
How do I dispense MetalFree into my pool?
- To add to your pool water, broadcast MetalFree around the sides of your pool, NEVER add to your skimmer. After adding to your pool, run the pump for the next 24 hours continuously to ensure that the MetalFree is evenly distributed across the entire pool. Make sure to brush any stains on the wall to help MetalFree take effect.
Will MetalFree get rid of stains I already have?
- Yes, MetalFree does help get rid of metal stains, but it works best as a stain preventer. Simply add MetalFree when you are filling or re-filling your pool, and this should stop metal stains before they happen.
I got algae after I used other stain preventers, how do I stop this?
- This happens because many other stain preventers contain phosphates. Phosphates are the main food source for algae, and if no phosphates are present in your water, algae cannot grow. MetalFree Stain Prevention is all-natural and contains NO phosphates, which means it will not cause the growth of any algae.
