Fighting A Green Pool

Some helpful hints to people who open to a very green pool this spring. For starters, please do not simply guess that chlorine tabs and liquid shock will cure all. What that is the most common treatment, sometimes the problem runs deeper than simple solutions. For example if you live in an area where people frequently treat their lawns, you could have a phosphate problem. Chlorine will not cure a phosphate problem and as such you could end up wasting a lot of money mistreating your pool. Bring us a water sample and we will be more than happy to make sure that all of the chemicals you purchase are necessary and effective. Having your water professionally tested can also help catch unbalanced water before it becomes a major problem. The benefit here is that catching poor water chemistry before the pool turns green can save you a lot of money. To make a long story short, having your water professionally tested will save you a lot of money, plus the test is free.
