Green Pool Treatment & Algae Removal

Why Pools Turn Green in Hesperia

Finding your pool has turned green can be frustrating and embarrassing. But do not worry, it happens more often than you think, especially in Hesperia's warm climate. When temperatures rise and pool maintenance gets skipped, algae can take over your pool within days.

Green pools happen when algae grows out of control. This usually occurs when chlorine levels drop too low, the filter system is not running enough, or the water chemistry gets out of balance. In our desert environment, intense sunlight and heat create perfect conditions for algae to multiply rapidly.

The good news is that even the greenest pool can be restored. Our professional pool treatment services have transformed hundreds of green pools back to beautiful, swimmable condition. We know exactly what it takes to kill the algae, remove the stains, and prevent it from coming back.

Our Green Pool Treatment Process

Treating a green pool takes more than just adding chlorine. We follow a proven multi-step process to fully eliminate algae and restore water clarity:

• •Initial assessment to determine algae type and severity of the problem
• •Removal of large debris and surface matter before treatment begins
• •Application of powerful algaecide to kill existing algae throughout the pool
• •Shock treatment with high-dose chlorine to oxidize dead algae and organic matter
• •Thorough brushing of all pool surfaces to break up algae colonies
• •Filter cleaning and continuous circulation to remove dead algae particles
• •Multiple follow-up visits to vacuum debris and rebalance water chemistry
• •Final water testing and adjustments to prevent future algae growth

Depending on how severe your algae problem is, treatment typically takes 5 to 10 days. We visit multiple times during this period to ensure complete algae elimination. If you need ongoing care after treatment, our weekly pool maintenance service keeps your pool algae-free year-round.

Preventing Future Algae Problems

Once we get your pool clear again, you want to keep it that way. Prevention is much easier and cheaper than treatment. The key is maintaining proper chlorine levels, running your filter system long enough each day, and keeping up with regular cleaning.

In Hesperia's hot summers, your pool needs extra attention. We recommend running your filter at least 8 to 10 hours daily during peak season. Weekly brushing prevents algae from taking hold on pool surfaces, and regular chemical testing catches problems before they become visible.

If your filter is old or not working efficiently, that makes algae problems more likely. Our filter cleaning and replacement services ensure your filtration system keeps algae spores from multiplying in your water.
