Green Pool Treatment & Algae Removal

Why Pools Turn Green

A green pool is not just ugly—it is a sign that algae has taken over. This happens when your pool water gets out of balance. Low chlorine, poor circulation, warm weather, and debris all create the perfect environment for algae to grow fast. In Titusville, our hot Florida summers make this problem even more common.

Algae spreads quickly once it starts. What might look like a small green tint one day can turn into a swamp within 48 hours. The good news is that we have seen it all and know exactly how to fix it. Your pool can go from green and cloudy to sparkling blue in just a few days with the right treatment.

Different Types of Algae

Not all algae is the same. Green algae is the most common and easiest to treat. Yellow algae (also called mustard algae) is stubborn and clings to walls. Black algae has roots that dig into plaster and can be very difficult to remove. We identify which type you have and use the right chemicals and techniques for that specific problem.

Each type requires a different approach. That is why hiring professionals makes sense. We know which products work best and how to apply them safely. Trying to fix a green pool yourself often wastes time and money on the wrong chemicals. We get it done right the first time.

How Long Does Treatment Take?

Most green pools need 3 to 5 days to clear up completely. We start the treatment on day one, then return for follow-up visits to vacuum, test, and adjust chemicals. The exact timeline depends on how bad the algae problem is and your pool size. Very dark green or black algae might take a bit longer.

After your pool is clear, we recommend signing up for regular weekly pool maintenance to prevent algae from returning. We also offer filter cleaning services because a dirty filter is one of the main reasons pools turn green. Keeping up with deep cleaning helps too.
