Green Pool Recovery Sydney
Green, cloudy or swampy pool? We kill the algae, clear the water and get it back to swimmable.
A green pool is caused by algae growing when chlorine levels drop too low, often after heat, heavy rain or a few weeks without maintenance. Fixing it involves removing debris, correcting the water balance, shocking the pool to kill the algae, running and cleaning the filter, and vacuuming the dead algae out. Badly neglected pools usually need two or more visits.

Why pools turn green in Sydney
Warm weather, summer storms and leaf litter all use up chlorine fast. Once free chlorine drops, algae can take over in a matter of days — especially if the pump isn't running long enough or the filter is dirty.
Selling or leasing?
A green pool hurts photos and inspections. We can recover the pool and keep it clear until settlement or the end of the lease.

Green Pool Recovery — FAQs
How long does it take to fix a green pool?
Mildly green pools often clear within one to three days. Very dark or swampy pools can take a week or more and several visits, depending on the filter and how much organic matter is in the water.
Is it safe to swim in a green pool?
No. Green water means the pool isn't properly sanitised and you can't see the bottom, which is a drowning risk. Wait until the water is clear and tested.
Will it turn green again?
Not if the water is kept balanced. Most green pools come from missed maintenance, which is why we offer regular plans after a recovery.
