At Healthy Pools, we provide professional green pool recovery services to restore algae-affected pools back to clean, safe, and crystal-clear water. If your pool has suddenly turned green, cloudy, or unsafe to swim in, our expert technicians can fix it quickly and correctly.
Green pools are usually caused by algae growth, and without proper treatment, the problem can worsen fast. Therefore, early professional intervention is essential.
A green pool is a swimming pool or spa where the water has turned green due to algae blooms. Although green water can occasionally be caused by rust, leaves, or pollen, algae is by far the most common reason.
Algae growth often occurs when:
Chlorine levels are too low
Water chemistry is unbalanced
The pool has heavy or unusual usage
Regular maintenance has been missed
As a result, the pool becomes unsafe, unsightly, and unhygienic.
🔹 Insufficient Chlorine
Algae blooms are commonly caused by low chlorine levels. This may happen when chlorine hasn’t been added regularly or when the pool has been under heavy use and needs higher-than-normal sanitisation.
Even allowing chlorine levels to drop for one day can trigger algae growth.
🔹 Incorrect pH Balance
If your pool’s pH is not properly balanced, chlorine cannot work effectively. Therefore, even when chlorine is present, algae can still grow.
Because every pool reacts differently, there is no one-size-fits-all solution to green pool cleaning.
We follow a proven step-by-step recovery process to eliminate algae safely and effectively.
Our green pool recovery service includes:
Detailed water testing
Identification of algae strength
Correct chemical treatment and chlorine shock
pH and alkalinity balancing
Algae removal and water clarification
Filtration and circulation optimisation
As a result, your pool becomes clear, hygienic, and safe to swim in again.
Without chlorine in the the pool  algae will start to grow quickly. If chlorine is not added to the water once  the algae willl grow to a point where the entire pool turns green.
When pollen builds up in the water it begins to settle on the liner, and turn green.
