MAV AquaDoc Natural Pool Clarifier 32 oz — Chitosan-Based Weekly Treatment for Inground & Above-Ground Pools

If your inground or above-ground pool looks dull or slightly cloudy despite regular sanitizing, this 32 oz bottle of MAV AquaDoc clarifier offers a weekly maintenance boost. Formulated around chitosan, a naturally derived biopolymer, the product is designed to aggregate tiny suspended solids and certain metal ions so they become large enough for your filtration system to trap. It works with conventional chlorine and saltwater systems and is made in the USA.

How does this clarifier improve water clarity?

The clarifier uses chitosan to attract and bind microscopic particulates that make water look hazy. Once bound together into larger clusters, those particles can be caught by standard pool filters instead of remaining suspended.

• Chitosan aggregates colloids and fine debris so filters capture them more easily.
• Helps reduce visible cloudiness between vacuuming and backwashing cycles.
• Compatible with sand, cartridge, and DE filtration when used as directed.

Will it remove oils, lotions, and waterline buildup?

This clarifier is formulated to reduce oils and organic residues that cling to the waterline and cause dullness. By collecting these residues into larger particles, the filter can remove more of the material during normal circulation.

• Helps diminish oily films that form from sunscreens and body oils.
• Supports cleaner-looking waterline and less frequent manual scrubbing.
• Works as part of routine maintenance—combine with regular filter cleaning for best results.

Can it prevent metal stains and how does it work with metals?

MAV AquaDoc clarifier attracts trace metals such as iron, copper, and manganese so they can be filtered out instead of precipitating on pool surfaces. While it helps reduce the risk of staining, it should be used as part of a broader maintenance plan that includes proper pH and sequestration when required.

• Binds small metal ions so filtration can remove them before they oxidize.
• Reduces the chance of discoloration when used regularly with other maintenance steps.
• Not a replacement for dedicated metal sequestrants in extreme cases.

How do I use MAV AquaDoc clarifier in my weekly routine?

Application is simple: dose the liquid directly into the pool—no premixing—while the pump is running, then allow normal filtration to run for several hours. Use it as a periodic treatment to support your existing sanitizer and filter schedule.

• Suitable for both inground and above-ground pools; follow label dosing for your pool volume.
• Works with chlorine and saltwater systems—add during routine circulation.
• Combine with regular backwashing or cartridge cleaning for best long-term performance.
