How much does it cost to fix a green pool ?

The cost to recover a green pool depends on the severity of the algae bloom, the condition of your water chemistry, and whether your pool equipment is working correctly.

For a mild algae bloom, the solution may be as simple as adjusting the water chemistry and adding the correct amount of liquid chlorine to restore the sanitiser level. In these cases, the treatment cost is usually much lower because the pool does not require extensive intervention.

More severe green pools may require additional treatments, such as algaecides, chemical balancing products, multiple chlorine treatments, and extra filtration time to remove dead algae and restore water clarity. These pools often require more time, chemicals, and monitoring to fully recover.

In some cases, the cause of the green pool is not only the water chemistry but a fault with the pool equipment. A failing pump, blocked filter, broken chlorinator, or poor circulation can prevent the pool from staying clean. If equipment repairs or replacement are required, the overall cost will depend on the parts and labour needed to restore proper filtration and sanitation.

Alex’s Advice💡

The best way to know the cost of recovering your pool is to have it assessed first. Every green pool is different, and the right treatment depends on identifying the cause rather than simply adding chemicals.
