Why Generic Internet Advice Fails in Florida
If you've tried following a "How to Clean a Green Pool" guide from a national blog and it didn't work, it's not your fault. Those guides don't account for Volusia County's unique climate challenges:
- Extreme UV Index: The Florida sun burns off unstabilized chlorine in hours, making standard "shock" doses ineffective.
- Phosphate Runoff: Frequent afternoon storms wash fertilizer into your pool, feeding algae faster than you can kill it.
- Pollen Season: Oak pollen in Ormond Beach creates a nutrient-rich layer that protects algae from chemicals.
- Warm Water: Algae doubles every 4-6 hours in 85°F+ water. You need a "Florida-Strength" protocol to win.
From Green to Clean in 3 Steps
Green pools are caused by algae blooms, often due to low chlorine, poor filtration, or high phosphates. Here's how we fix it:
Shock & Kill
We apply a heavy dose of liquid chlorine and specialized algaecides to kill the algae spores and stop the bloom immediately.
Filter & Clarify
We run your filter 24/7, backwashing frequently, and add flocculants to clump dead algae together so it can be vacuumed out.
Balance & Stabilize
Once clear, we balance the pH, alkalinity, and stabilizer (CYA) levels to prevent the algae from returning.
Why Green Pools Are Dangerous
Green water isn't just ugly—it's a health hazard. It can harbor bacteria like E. coli, attract mosquitoes, and hide dangerous debris on the bottom.
