By far the easiest way without a professional cleaner is a product called Pool Cage Plus. (www.poolcageplus.com) Shoots 25 feet to get the top of the pool cage. And you don't have to do crazy things like your pool brush and scrub it.

How long does it take to clean green algae in a pool?

The time it takes to clean green algae in a pool will vary depending on the severity of the algae infestation, the size of the pool, and the cleaning methods used. It typically takes several days to a week to completely clean and remove green algae from a pool. Regular maintenance and proper chemical treatment can help prevent future algae growth.


Can you clean scaling and dirt stains from a plaster pool without draining?

If your pool filter is up and running, also it is best to clean the walls and floor if you have a normal to high chlorine level because this will be also your cleaning agent. Take a soft bristle brush, get in the pool and start cleaning, all the above should come off. it is better if the filter is running so you can vac out the dirt, when the dirt goes to the bottom of the pool.

Black algae is very hard to get rid of You need to get down there with something an scrub the surface of the algae. this will damage it so that algaecides will be able to penetrate it Hit the pool with a suitable algaecide you will be able to get this at your pool shop and also try putting some dry chlorine in a sock and place it directly on the worst affected areas, leave it for a while and see what happens.


If you have a severe black algae problem that you have been mitigating for years and can't get rid of can getting a very dark blue liner help to hide the black algae stains?

In a word ~ NO. If the algae bloom is that severe maybe a replaster is in order. Sounds like you need to be more diligent on chemistry in the pool along with proper filtration among other things. Sounds like a problem of neglect. Black algae will bore into the plaster unlike green algae. It is very difficult to get rid of especially on rough plaster. You cannot cover over it or paint over it. Oh, the dark blue liner or any liner can and will cover and hide the algae problem but you will still have the algae problem and in fact compound the problem. The algae could bore through the new liner and then where will you be - - right back in the same boat. k


What is yellow algae and how do you recognize it?

Yellow algae is as the description states yellowish in color. You can determine if you can see a yellow tint on the white or light surface of the plaster or vinyl. You can further determine algae by just brushing the yellow spots -- if it brushes off then it is most likely yellow algae. Mustard algae is similar but will be harder to brush off. The algae usually breeds on the shady side of the pool first then progresses to the rest of the pool depending on how long the pool has been neglected. K

How can you remove stains from wood chips in a salt system pool?

My experience is that the stains will go away by themselves, through the effects of the chlorination of the water. Does not matter if the pool is a salt pool or fresh water pool. If the pool has a plaster finish, brushing the stains with a wire pool brush will speed up the process.

Why has Burnout 35 left black stains on the bottom of a plaster pool and how can you remove them?

This must be an algaecide of some sort possible a low grade of chlorine. Did you follow the instructions EXACTLY? Is this product supposed to settle on algae spots? If not , did you brush it to keep it from clumping and settling on the bottom of the pool? The black stains, possible caused by the product burning the plaster where it settled --- improper use of product. Impossible to know without seeing the stains and finding out just how you used the product. Contact Bioguard for further info.
