Can the Pool Wizard Active Minerals turn my hair green?
The Pool Wizard, on its own, cannot cause green hair. If the pool has been treated with copper-based algaecides, hydrogen peroxides, bromine or biguanide products, the combination of factors can on rare occasion result in green-tinted hair. Although very seldom seen, this almost always occurs when the pH and/ or Total Alkalinity level of the water is very low and the Calcium Hardness level is high. Care should nevertheless be taken when installing the Pool Wizard and we recommend adding the Active Minerals/ Rechargers a week before you intend to use the pool if possible. This is more important with smaller pools (i.e. 10,000 gallons for Pool Wizard or 5,000 gallons for Above Ground Unit). Alternatively you can add half of the Active Minerals initially and the balance two weeks later.
