According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the best way to treat green water in your pool is to use a chlorine shock treatment or algaecide. Chlorine shock treatments are available at most hardware or home improvement stores, and algaecides can be found at pool supply stores. However, properly handling these chemicals and applying them safely to your pool is crucial to avoid injuring yourself or damaging your pool, which is why hiring a professional company like WRX Pool Services is always the best option.
A pool turns green when algae starts growing in the water. There are several reasons why algae could grow inside your pool, but it is mostly caused by extended exposure to the sun, rain, and other weather conditions. These weather factors influence the pool chemical balance and lead to turning the pool cloudy or green.
When our professionals at WRX Pool Services come to your home, the first thing we will do is test the chlorine and pH levels in your pool water. After testing the water, we will add the necessary chemicals to balance out the levels. Once the levels are balanced, we will move on to shocking the pool with chlorine.
If you have a
saltwater pool, we will use a saltwater chlorine generator to shock the pool. This process will help kill any algae and bacteria that are present in the water. Once the water is clear, we will add algaecide to prevent the algae from coming back.
After your pool has been treated and is no longer green, it is important to take the necessary steps to prevent it from turning green again. Some of the things you can do to prevent this from happening are:
Test the chlorine and pH levels regularly and adjust as needed
Run the filter for at least 8 hours a day
Skim the surface of the pool every day to remove debris
Brush the walls and floor of the pool weekly
Empty the skimmer basket and clean it out regularly
Have your pool professionally cleaned and serviced at least once a month
