Common Problem
Green Pool Water? Common Causes and Next Steps
Green pools develop fast in Orlando's tropical heat, and it only takes a couple of days without proper chlorine — especially after a heavy storm — for a pool to turn. The remediation depends on how heavily the pool is affected.
Most likely causes
- Chlorine depletion after storms
- High phosphates from lawn runoff
- Poor circulation
- Tropical storm debris and organics
What to do now
Shock with a chlorine-based product, brush the pool, run filtration continuously, and clean the filter frequently. Persistent blooms generally warrant a service visit.
