PR-10,000 is a highly concentrated rare-earth phosphate remover. It is formulated to react with phosphates in the water, allowing them to be removed from solution. It reacts with all known types of phosphates on contact and hardens them into a fine precipitate, which falls out of solution. The inert phosphates then floc out, to be vacuumed or filtered out of the pool. PR-10,000 causes cloudiness, which can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Use as needed, and do not exceed the recommended dosage unless otherwise specified (see below).

Because of PR-10,000's concentration, a little goes a long way. A dose of PR-10,000 may be surprisingly small to you, but watch it work. PR-10,000 is one of the original Orenda Products and is professional grade.

Why Remove Phosphates?

Unlike most other contaminants in water, chlorine cannot remove phosphates, because they do not interact with each other directly...so to reduce phosphate levels, you will need a phosphate remover.

How to use PR-10,000

Detailed instructions for how to use PR-10,000 are in our help center.

We recommend not exceeding 8 fl.oz./10,000 gallons for a normal treatment unless otherwise specified. This is recommended because of the impact on filter pressure. When phosphates are removed, there is a fine precipitate that falls out of solution. Too much precipitate at one time can cause high pressure in filters.

PRO TIP: You can complement the PR-10,000 with CE-Clarifier to help filter out precipitate faster.

PRO TIP 2: If your pool is cloudy/dirty enough that you cannot see the main drain at the bottom of the pool, do not use PR-10,000 without also purging with CV-600 or CV-700 enzymes. It may not be enough to clear the pool. If there are enough oils and organics in the water, those oils will float and can stick to the falling PR-10,000 fallout dust. This means the dust can stay suspended in the water for days instead of clearing overnight. Enzymes accelerate the clearing of a problem pool.

For green pools, follow our Green Pool Cleanup procedure.
