Common Pool Water Problems and How to Solve Them

• Owning a pool is great for relaxation and
  entertaining, but it also requires proper
  maintenance to keep the water safe and clean.
  Here are some common pool water problems and
  their solutions.

2
Cloudy Water

• If your pool water appears cloudy or hazy, it
  could be caused by poor filtration, high pH
  levels, or algae growth. To solve this problem,
  check and clean your pool filter regularly,
  adjust the pH levels, and use an algaecide.

3
Green Water

• If your pool water has turned green, it's likely
  due to algae growth. Shock your pool with a high
  dose of chlorine and algaecide, and scrub the
  walls and floor to remove any remaining algae.

4
High Chlorine Levels

• While chlorine is essential for killing bacteria
  and keeping pool water safe, too much chlorine
  can cause skin and eye irritation. Test your
  water regularly and adjust the chlorine levels as
  needed.

5
Algae Growth

• Algae can also grow on pool walls, steps, and
  other surfaces, making them slippery and unsafe.
  Use a brush and pool cleaner to remove algae
  buildup, and add algaecide to prevent future
  growth.

6
Low Chlorine Levels

• On the other hand, low chlorine levels can lead
  to bacteria growth and unsafe swimming
  conditions. Make sure to add the appropriate
  amount of chlorine to your pool on a regular
  basis.

7
pH Imbalance

• An imbalanced pH level can cause skin and eye
  irritation, as well as damage to pool equipment.
  Use a pH testing kit to check the levels and add
  the appropriate chemicals to balance the pH.
