Nothing ruins a sunny Georgia weekend like walking out to a pool that looks more like a backyard pond. With Atlanta’s extreme humidity and soaring temperatures, algae can take over in less than 48 hours. If your water has turned green, it’s time to act fast.
Why Georgia Pools Turn Green Overnight
The combination of heavy rain (which messes with your pH) and intense UV rays (which eat up your chlorine) creates a paradise for algae. Once it starts, a regular cleaning won't cut it. You need a chemical "reset."
The 48-Hour Recovery Plan
-
Test and Balance: Algae thrives in high pH. Before you add any chemicals, make sure your pH is between 7.2 and 7.4.
-
Shock the System: You need professional-grade chlorine shock to kill the algae blooms. Standard "grocery store" chemicals often aren't strong enough for Georgia summers.
-
Brush and Filter: Scrub the walls to break the algae’s protective layer and run your filter 24/7 until the water is blue again.
