Asked in Swimming Pools, Pool Care and Cleaning
Can you use household bleach in swimming pool to get the green out?
Yes, however not at all effectively as you would require a large
amount of household strength bleach to have the same effect as the
stuff you would get from a pool supplies shop. Once the water has
gone green it requires a "shock dose" of chlorine or similar to
kill off the growth, usually 10-15L (~2.5-4gal) of swimming pool
strength chlorine is sufficient to "shock" a household pool
(~<100,000L). It would be more effective to use household bleach
to prevent the green from forming in the first place
