Green to Clean
Did you find something that resembles a swamp when you pulled back your safety cover this season? Pool algae, if left unchecked, can start to grow like the rainforest. Once your swimming pool has gotten too cloudy to see the bottom and the pool water looks green or black, it’s time to pump it out.
No Lifeguard On Duty
Once the pool condition has been assessed, we can start the transformation from your green pool to a clean pool. We will drop pool chemicals in the water that will start to react and break down the algae. Once the pool is ready, we will pump the filled pool and get as much of the debris and algae out as we can. Some pools are bad enough to need multiple treatments, and a heavy algae infestation may call for that.
Swim at Own Risk
Once the visible algae is gone and the water has been visually transformed, we can focus on balancing the water chemistry. Chemicals must be introduced into the pool slowly and a few at a time so that it is safe for you and the pool surface. The finished result is a stunning pool that you can enjoy time and time again; just be sure to keep the water happy and your equipment serviced.
Algae Prevention and Ongoing Pool Care
Regular pool maintenance can help with algae control. Some ways pool owners can maintain their pool include:
- Schedule weekly maintenance and cleaning
- Maintain your pool pump for proper circulation
- Clean the pool cartridge filter on a regular schedule for a healthy filtration system
- Schedule a professional pool start-up in the spring to open the season with balanced water
