Algae Pool Cleaning in Charleston, SC
If your swimming pool is turning green, cloudy, or looking more like a pond, you might be dealing with algae. Pool algae can quickly take over, especially in warm and humid climates like Charleston.
Our Green to Clean Process
At Net Positive Pools, we start by evaluating the condition of your pool. Once we identify the issues, we carefully follow a thorough cleaning process to get your pool back to its best shape:
- We add specialized chemicals that begin breaking down algae spores and tackle algae blooms.
- Our team uses a pool brush to scrub down pool walls, steps, and the pool surface, removing stubborn algae.
- We pump out debris, dead algae, and contaminated pool water to prevent further algae growth.
- We check your pool filter, pump, and other equipment for proper circulation and clean them to prevent issues.
- If necessary, we repeat the treatments until your pool is clean and clear.
- Once the water starts to clear, we adjust your pool’s chlorine levels, pH levels, and overall water chemistry.
Ready to Clean Your Green Pool?
Although algae can seem easy to deal with using a quick shock treatment or store-bought solution, it’s much more persistent than that. While green algae might appear to clear up initially, it can return within days. More resistant types of algae, such as mustard algae and black algae, can hide deep within porous surfaces and tiny crevices in your pool walls and equipment.
A professional knows exactly how algae behaves and has the right tools to prevent it from coming back. We ensure your pool is treated correctly by assessing your pool water, filtration system, pool cleaner, and other equipment to make sure the algae doesn’t return. With professional algae cleaning services, you save time, reduce chemical purchases, and protect your pool investment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can algae spread in a pool?
Algae can spread quickly, especially in warm water or when chlorine levels are low. It can go from light discoloration to a full algae bloom in just a few days.
Can I use my pool pump if the pool is green?
Yes! In fact, running your pool pump helps circulate the water, making the treatment process more effective. However, if the pool filter is clogged, it may not work properly, so we’ll check the equipment during the service.
Is it safe to swim in a green pool?
No, it’s not safe to swim in a green pool. In addition to algae, a green pool may contain bacteria and other contaminants that make it unsafe.
Will algae come back after pool treatment?
Algae can return if chemical balance and filtration aren’t properly maintained. We offer regular maintenance and weekly pool care for algae prevention.
Do saltwater pools get algae?
Yes, even saltwater pools can experience algae growth. While saltwater systems help maintain certain chemical balances, it’s still important to monitor chlorine levels, pH levels, and filtration to prevent algae from growing.
