    Default Now where to find polyquat?

    The local Walmart and pool supply outlets do not carry the polyquat (only linears and copper based.) I checked with Leslie's online and apparently they no longer carry the Pooltrine product but also have all those copper and linears on hand. Is there another reputable online I can order Polyquat products from? I really would like to get some now as I begin to start with pool closing. Thank you.

    I've also seen it at Kmart if you have any left in your area.

    This is Leslie's poly 60. They cleared their warehouses of the pooltrine brand.

    http://www.lesliespool.com/shopping/...ProductID=8110

    Lowe's carried poly 60 under the Aqua Chem brand name. Active ingredient should read "60% Poly (oxyethylene [dimethyliminio] ethylene [dimethyliminio] ethylene dichloride, and 40% other ingredients"

    I believe I have to order online. No Home Depot and our Lowes has decided not to carry ANY pool items because (coming from the mgr) "we are too cold up here for pool stuff to sell well" - Oh really? Anyways, thanks I will check with Leslie's again!

    I saw some at my local Ace Hardware for 18.99 a quart.

    Then again if you only need it for closing and can wait awhile, the pool stores should be doing "End of Season" close outs in a month or so.

    In my area, they clear out the pool stuff and become Ski and Snowboard Stores for the winter. So the pool supplies are greatly reduced.

    The only place around here is Home Depot: $14.99/qt. I've stocked up.

    This is 60% polyquat "Blue Wave Eradicator™ 60 Algaecide" and I think that the BioGuard All 60 is also 60% polyquat - but check the label first.

    I have seen the Blue Wave stuff on the Internet for about $20 a quart.
