One of the most prevalent problems that pool owners deal with is algae. This is especially true in warm, humid states like Florida and throughout the South. How does algae get in a swimming pool in the first place? Wind, rain, contaminated swimsuits or even pool cleaning tools can bring algae spores into pools. The presence of nitrates can also help contribute to algae blooms. Combine this with a lack of good circulation, filtration or sanitation and you have a recipe for algae. Algae multiplies rapidly on warm, sunny days in above or inground pools. When conditions are right, an algae bloom can occur in a matter of hours.
