How a green Danville pool gets back to clear

The order of the work matters, and so does where the water goes.

  • Vacuum to waste

    Vacuum to waste is the job for a pool that has gone green. Draining pool water in Danville is covered by Central San's rules, so call Central San before you drain.

  • Brushing and chlorine

    The EPA-accepted label of one chlorine granule product tells the user to brush walls and floor while the pump runs, dose chlorine as the label directs (heavier when growth is moderate to heavy), then repeat as needed. The doses are for that one product, so the label on yours is the reference.

  • Start-up afterward

    After a cleanup or a draining, we balance the chemicals, which we call pool start-up. A retest afterward shows where the water landed, using the CDC's home pool targets of at least 1 ppm chlorine and pH 7.0 to 7.8.

Why Danville pools turn green and what to avoid

A few shortcuts make the job harder.

More signs to watch for in Danville
  • Winter rain and debris. Winter rain at the nearby NOAA stations averages 2.8 to 3.5 inches in January, and rain dilutes pool chemistry while washing leaves in. Pools backed up to the Las Trampas Ridge on the west side of town can collect more oak and bay leaves.
  • Copper algaecide. Central San steers owners off copper algaecides: they can narrow the options for disposing of pool water, and chlorine or other alternatives are suggested.
  • Swimming too soon. The label we read bars anyone from re-entering a treated pool while chlorine is above 4 ppm. Wait for a test reading rather than judging the water by eye.
  • Draining in a hurry. The same label says to contact local sewer and storm drain authorities before draining treated pool water.

About the Area

Draining a green pool in Danville

Central San's fact sheet says never to drain pools, spas or fountains to a storm drain and to leave five days after adding chemicals. Central San says Danville is in its service area. The 2010 date on the sheet means rules may have changed, so call before you drain.

Central San's permit flyer requires a permit for sewer discharge, with 48 hours of notice by phone, by email or on an online form. The request asks about salt water and about copper in the water, which is one more reason to skip copper algaecide.

One Google reviewer writes that the pool water always looks good under our weekly care.

Advance pool care has been treating my pool for the past two weeks. They have been absolutely incredible. Our pool went from a green algae mess, to sparkling clean in just days. We are so happy with their services, communication, and punctuality, as we have had a bad experience with our last pool company. Thank you so much!

I have had Advance Pool Care do my weekly pool care and my repairs for a few years now. My pool water always looks good. I have had them replace the pump, diagnose and fix plumbing issues and algae blooms and more. I have been extremely satisfied and I can highly recommend them.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions: green pool cleanup in Danville, CA

How much does green pool cleanup cost in Danville?

The price depends on how green the pool is and what it needs, so we quote each Danville job separately. Our number is (925) 309-4685; tell us how green the water is and we will talk through the job.

What is the green pool cleaning process in Danville?

We vacuum to waste to take the water from green to clear, then do pool start-up to balance the chemicals. Before any water is drained in Danville, call Central San about its rules.

Can a green pool be saved in Danville?

Yes, vacuum to waste is how we take a Danville pool from green to clear, and pool start-up then balances the chemicals. Describe the color of the water on (925) 309-4685 and we talk it through first.

Why is my Danville pool green after rain?

January rain at the nearby NOAA stations averages 2.8 to 3.5 inches, and rain dilutes pool chemistry while it washes leaves in. Pools backed up to Las Trampas Ridge can collect more oak and bay leaves, so test the water after a storm.

What kills algae better in Danville, chlorine or algaecide?

Central San steers Danville owners off copper algaecides, since they can narrow the options for disposing of pool water, and suggests chlorine or other alternatives. Its sewer permit request also asks about copper in the water.

Is green pool water safe to swim in at a Danville home?

Wait for a test reading rather than judging the water by eye. The label we read bars anyone from re-entering a treated pool while chlorine is above 4 ppm, and the CDC's home pool targets are at least 1 ppm chlorine and pH 7.0 to 7.8.
