A pool can go from clear to green in as little as 48 hours once chlorine drops to zero. A power outage, a failed pump, or just a week of forgotten chemicals is usually all it takes. It happens. Life gets busy, and suddenly you've got a swamp in your backyard. No judgment. We treat most green pools on the first visit, and full clearing usually takes 1-3 days after that as the water circulates and the filter catches up. We use professional reagent testing at every stage so we know exactly how much shock and chemical your water needs instead of guessing and re-treating.

Common Questions

How long does green pool recovery take?

Most green pools can be brought back to clear in 1-3 days depending on severity. Light green? Often clear the next day. Dark green or black? Usually 2-3 days with multiple treatments.

How much does green pool recovery cost?

Cost depends on the severity and size of your pool. We provide a quote after seeing the pool, no surprises. In most cases it costs less than draining and refilling, and it avoids the risk of damaging your pool shell.

How did my pool turn green so fast?

In Utah's summer heat, a pool can go from clear to green in as little as 48 hours if the chlorine drops to zero. Power outages, pump failures, or simply forgetting chemicals for a week can trigger it. The good news: it's completely fixable.
