From green to clear

Recover your pool, then keep it recovered.

Green pools happen — equipment failure, vacation, chemistry running away during a 115° week. Recovery isn’t complicated, but it has to be done in the right order. We do the work; you get the pool back and a clean path forward.

3–7 day recovery (most pools)

Clear water in 3–7 days for most residential pools. Heavily contaminated or structurally compromised pools run longer, and we tell you up front if that’s the case before starting.

Flat-price, no hourly meter

One flat quote for the whole recovery. What we quote includes shock chemicals, brushing, filter runs, and partial drain if needed — not a running chemical and labor tab.

Smooth hand-off to weekly

When recovery completes, we start you on weekly service the same week (or hand back to your current service with a documented fresh start). Either way, the pool stays recovered.

What deep cleaning includes

The full recovery process, start to finish.

Six phases of green pool recovery — most pools need all six, some only need a few.

Assessment + chemistry baseline

Test current chemistry, inspect the shell for stains or damage, and review equipment. Flat quote delivered before we start.

Physical debris removal

Heavy leaf nets, basket clearing, surface skimming, and floor vacuum to remove what can be removed before chemistry work begins.

Chemistry reset

pH and alkalinity corrected, shock dosed appropriately for the contamination level. Most pools need double or triple shock during recovery.

Brush + 24-hour circulation

Aggressive brushing of walls, floor, and steps to disturb algae. Filter runs 24 hours during recovery to keep water moving and capture kill-off.

Partial drain (if needed)

Heavy mineral or chemistry-locked pools get a partial drain to reduce TDS, cyanuric acid, or phosphates. Usually 25–50% of pool volume — full drains are rare.

Final balance + clarification

Once water turns, a final chemistry balance, clarifier if needed, and filter clean to return the pool to swim-ready condition.

Why pools go green in Phoenix

Three reasons Phoenix pools turn green fast.

Understanding the cause makes it less likely to happen again — and shapes how we recover it.

UV destroys chlorine during heat waves

During a 115° stretch, free chlorine can drop from 3 ppm to 0 in a single day. A weekend away without enough stabilizer and your pool is green by Monday.

Monsoon overload

A single monsoon dumps 5–10 pounds of organic debris into a small pool overnight. If your chlorinator can’t keep up, algae bloom follows within 48 hours.

Equipment failures during peak heat

Pump seals, motor windings, and control boards fail most often in July and August — exactly when chemistry is most fragile. A 3-day circulation outage in summer usually means a green pool.

How a recovery runs

Four steps to clear water.

No mystery process, no open-ended timeline.

On-site assessment

We walk your pool, test water, estimate contamination level, and quote the recovery flat. Most quotes delivered same-day.

Shock + chemistry reset

Heavy shock treatment, chemistry correction, partial drain if needed. Usually day 1 of the recovery.

24-hour circulation + brushing

Filter runs continuously, pool brushed daily, filter cleaned every 12–24 hours during the bloom kill-off. Usually days 2–4.

Clear water + hand-off

Final balance once the water turns, filter clean, and either transition to weekly service or hand back to your current pool care. Usually days 4–7.

Our commitment

Here’s what’s in writing.

A green pool is stressful. Here’s what we commit to on every recovery — in writing.

Flat-price, no hourly surprises

One quote covers the full recovery: assessment, shock chemicals, brushing, filter runs, and partial drain if needed. No running meter, no add-on visits billed hourly.

Honest assessment up front

If your pool will take more than 7 days or needs an acid wash, we tell you before starting. No “well it’s taking longer than expected” conversations two weeks in.

Clean hand-off

Recovery ends with a documented water report and a clear path forward — either weekly service with us, or a clean hand-off to your existing service.

Common questions

(602) 879-3902

How fast can you clear a green pool?

Most residential green pools clear in 3–7 days. Heavily contaminated, algae-blooming, or structurally compromised pools can run 10+ days. We assess first and tell you up front what your pool will actually need.

Do I have to drain my pool for deep cleaning?

Not always. Many pools recover without a drain. A partial drain (25–50%) is sometimes needed for high TDS, very high cyanuric acid, or heavy mineral contamination. Full drains are rare and only recommended for acid-wash-level damage.

Why did my pool turn green in the first place?

The three most common causes in Phoenix: chlorine gone to zero during a heat wave (especially with low or no stabilizer), pump or salt-cell failure during summer circulation demands, and monsoon debris overwhelming sanitation capacity.

Can I go straight from deep cleaning to weekly service?

Yes — we usually recommend it. Starting weekly service the same week recovery ends prevents backsliding and catches the chemistry adjustments your pool needs during the first few weeks post-recovery.

Is deep cleaning safe for plaster and salt cells?

Yes, when done correctly. Aggressive brushing, proper shock dosing, and partial drains (when needed) don’t damage plaster or salt cells. Acid washes — a harsher recovery for heavy staining — are a separate service and discussed in detail up front.

Can I get deep cleaning for a vacation rental turnover?

Yes. We do short-notice deep cleanings for Airbnb and vacation rental turnovers — guest reported the pool was bad, or the owner found it green after a stretch of vacancy. Flat-price, quick turn, and scheduled around check-in dates.
