Yes, it does.

No, it isn't!

Chlorinated water is most common today. Many choose this type of system because the chlorine tablets are already available. Many find it more effective in dealing with bacteria and algae. Without chlorine, the pool can get clogged easily and be swamped with green algae.

Green in an above ground pool?

Algae, time for chlorine. Pool supply places have a test kit (ph) & can tell you how to use & what to add-chlorine or acid.


You just added alkalinity rise to your pool and then muraic acid then shock and the pool store informed you now last night pool was nice this am it is green?

It may be that the shock treatment was not enough to chlorinate your pool enough to keep it stable for more then a few hours. You also may have a high PH level from shocking it, which would lower the strength of your chlorine. You need to test your water and make sure you have 2-3ppm chlorine and a PH level between 7.4 - 7.6 . Then from there you can try to get rid of the green. Make sure the shock treatment is not your only source of chlorine and maintain that 2-3 chlorine residual and PH between 7.4 and 7.6 and the chance of your pool turning green in the first place will be severely dropped. Green water removal can be done as so half of the time. Brush the walls- Shock the pool- Run pump for 12-24 hours- Clean your filter-

If your pool has high chlorine levels along with algae, you should first test the water to confirm the chlorine levels.

It is also important to shock the pool with an appropriate amount of shock treatment to kill the algae and bring the chlorine levels back to normal. Regularly brushing and vacuuming the pool will also help remove the algae.
