Why It Matters
Why Green Pool Recovery Is Worth It
What actually happens when it gets skipped.
A green pool isn't a lost cause, it's a chemistry problem with a known fix. Algae took over because sanitizer ran out, and it dies the same way every time: shock, circulation, filtration and patience applied in the right order.
The mistake most owners make is dumping chlorine in once and hoping. Without daily follow-up the algae rebounds, the filter clogs with dead bloom, and the pool bounces between green and gray for weeks.

FAQ
Green Pool Recovery Questions, Answered
The things people ask before they book.
How long does it take?
Most green pools clear in 4-7 days. A pool that sat all season, or heavy debris, can take longer, we tell you up front.
Do I need to drain the pool?
Usually no. Chemistry solves most green pools. Draining only makes sense in extreme cases, and we'll say so before anything happens.
How do I keep it from going green again?
A working pump, a clean filter and consistent sanitizer. That's exactly what weekly service exists for, most recovery customers roll straight into a route.
