Green to Clean Pool Service in Fort Bend County
Green water in your pool? We kill the algae, clean the filter and balance the water until you can see the bottom again. Most pools take about 5 to 7 days.
Why Pools Turn Green
Green water is algae. It shows up when the chlorine runs out, and in our heat that can happen in just a few days.
The usual causes are a missed week of service, a pump that stopped running, a dirty filter, or a big storm that watered down the chemicals.
Don't swim in a green pool. You can't see the bottom, and the water isn't safe until it's clear and balanced again.
How We Clear a Green Pool
Every pool is a little different, but the steps are the same.
- We test the water and check the equipmentIf the pump or filter isn't working, the water won't clear. We find that out first.
- We shock the waterA strong dose of chlorine kills the algae.
- We brush the whole poolBrushing knocks algae off the walls and steps so the chlorine can reach it.
- We clean the filter, more than onceDead algae clogs a filter fast. We clean it as many times as it takes.
- We vacuum what settlesDead algae sinks to the floor. We vacuum it out.
- We balance the waterOnce it's clear, we set the chemicals so it stays that way.

FAQ
Green to Clean Questions
How long does it take to clear a green pool?
Most pools take about 5 to 7 days. A light green pool can clear faster. A dark green pool, or one with a weak filter, can take longer. We tell you what to expect when we see it.
Can I swim while you're clearing it?
No. Stay out until you can see the bottom and the chemicals are back in a safe range. We'll let you know when it's ready.
Do you have to drain my pool?
Most green pools don't need to be drained. We clear the water that's there. If we find a reason to drain it, we explain why and give you a price first.
Why does my pool keep turning green?
Usually the chlorine keeps running out. That can come from heat, rain, a filter that needs cleaning or a pump that doesn't run long enough. We find the cause so it stops happening.
Will you keep it clean after?
Yes. We can switch you to weekly cleaning once the water is clear, so it doesn't turn green again.
