"Was out of town and learned that our pool had turned green. Called MB and spoke to Kevin. Explained our situation and he said he would head over and take a look at the pool condition. He was able to turn the pool around and sent me pictures showing the blue water. Because of his timely response I hired him to do our monthly maintenance on the pool. Kevin and Christian were great to deal with."

It Happens Fast Out Here
Bringing an Algae Pool Back to Blue
Killing the algae is the easy half. Getting it out of the water is the work.
In a Buckeye summer, water sitting at ninety degrees will bloom within days of the chlorine running out. People go away for a week, or the pump timer fails, or a service company quietly skips a visit, and the owner comes home to a pool they cannot see the bottom of.
The fix is a process, not a product. We test, remove the debris, shock the water hard, then run filtration continuously and clean the filter repeatedly while brushing the surfaces. Over several days the dead algae comes out and the water clears. Kevin has turned pools around remotely for customers who were out of state and sent them the photos to prove it.

How Pools Turn
What Usually Causes a Pool to Go Green
Five causes behind nearly every green pool call we take between May and September.
-
A Week Away in Summer
Chlorine burns off in days at 110 degrees and nothing is there to replace it.
-
The Pump Stopped Running
A failed timer or tripped breaker means water sat still without circulating.
-
Filter Long Past Cleaning
Flow drops so low that the water technically circulates but never clears.
-
A Monsoon Dump
One storm loads the pool with organics that eat the chlorine overnight.
-
A Vacant or Rental Home
Nobody has looked at the pool since the last tenant left months ago.
The Turnaround
Our Order of Attack on a Swamp
Four stages over several days — you will see the change from day two.
-
Test and Net Out
Water tested, then leaves, pods and debris pulled out before anything else.
-
Shock the Water
A heavy chlorine dose kills the bloom and breaks down what is living in it.
-
Filter and Brush Daily
Equipment runs around the clock while we brush and clean the filter repeatedly.
-
Balance and Hand Back
Once it is clear we balance the chemistry and tell you what caused it.
Algae in the Desert
Why Buckeye Pools Bloom So Quickly
Six conditions that make an Arizona green pool a days-long problem rather than a weeks-long one.
Ninety-Degree Water
Warm water grows algae several times faster than a cooler pool would.
A Two-Day Window
Summer chlorine can go from correct to zero between one weekend and the next.
Post-Storm Blooms
Monsoon dust and runoff feed algae with exactly what it needs to take hold.
Landscape Debris
Palm pods and olive drop sink and rot, consuming chlorine from the floor up.
Rental Turnover Gaps
Airbnb pools between guests go unwatched for exactly long enough to turn.
Undersized Run Times
Pumps set for spring hours cannot keep up once the heat really arrives.

Green Pool Answers
What People Ask When the Pool Turns
Most take three to five days from the first visit. A light green pool can turn in about two. If it is dark green with no visible floor, budget closer to a week — the equipment has to physically filter every particle out and that is not something you can rush.
