Green pool water is almost always caused by an algae bloom triggered by low chlorine, poor circulation, or a clogged filter. Left untreated, algae can stain surfaces, damage equipment, and make the pool unsafe for swimming. A pool technician tests the water chemistry, shock-treats the pool, brushes and vacuums algae deposits, and balances pH and sanitizer levels to restore clear water.

When the pool pump stops running, water circulation and filtration halt completely, allowing bacteria and algae to multiply within hours. The cause may be a tripped breaker, a burned-out motor capacitor, a seized impeller, or a failed motor winding. A pool technician diagnoses the electrical and mechanical fault, replaces worn components such as the capacitor, seal, or motor, and verifies the pump restores proper flow and pressure.

A torn or punctured vinyl pool liner causes steady water loss, undermines the pool deck as saturated soil shifts, and allows algae to grow behind the liner where it cannot be treated. Tears occur from age-related brittleness, sharp objects on the pool floor, chemical imbalances that degrade the vinyl, or ice damage during winter. A pool and spa technician locates the tear with dye testing, patches small punctures underwater, or measures and installs a full replacement liner when the damage is too extensive to repair.

Green pool water is caused by algae growth, typically from insufficient chlorine levels, poor filtration, or unbalanced pH. While mild cases can be treated with shock treatment and brushing, severe algae blooms may require professional intervention including draining, acid washing, and chemical rebalancing. A pool technician can restore water clarity and set up a maintenance plan.

A pool pump that won't start, makes unusual noises, or doesn't circulate water properly can quickly lead to algae growth and unsanitary conditions. Common causes include a burnt motor, clogged impeller, air leak in the suction line, or a tripped breaker. A pool and spa technician can diagnose and repair or replace the pump.

A pool pump that runs but fails to prime cannot circulate or filter the water, leaving the pool vulnerable to algae growth and chemical imbalances. Common causes include an air leak in the suction line, a clogged impeller, a cracked pump lid, or a low water level in the pool. A pool technician inspects the suction plumbing for air leaks, clears the impeller and strainer basket, replaces worn gaskets or a cracked lid, and verifies the pump achieves full prime with steady flow.

A hot tub that runs its jets but fails to heat the water makes it unusable, especially in cooler weather. The problem often stems from a faulty heating element, a tripped high-limit sensor, low water flow through the heater, or a malfunctioning control board. A pool and spa technician tests the heater, sensors, and flow switch, replaces the defective component, and calibrates the thermostat so the tub reaches and maintains the set temperature reliably.

Cloudy or milky pool water usually signals a chemical imbalance, poor filtration, or the early stages of an algae bloom. Left untreated, it can irritate swimmers' eyes and skin and mask hazards on the pool floor. A pool and spa technician can test the water chemistry, clean or replace the filter media, and restore crystal-clear water.

Green, slimy water and algae growth on pool walls or floor indicate that the sanitizer level has dropped too low, the filtration system isn't running enough hours, or the pH is out of range. Left untreated, algae can clog the filter, stain the plaster, and make the pool unsafe to swim in. A pool technician can test the water chemistry, perform a shock treatment, brush and vacuum the surfaces, clean or backwash the filter, and adjust the chemical balance to prevent recurrence.

A pool heater that fails to ignite, shuts off mid-cycle, or can't reach the set temperature turns your pool into an unusable investment during cooler months. Gas heaters can develop ignitor failures, clogged burner trays, or corroded heat exchangers; heat pumps may have refrigerant leaks or defrost-cycle faults. A pool and spa technician can troubleshoot the control board, test gas pressure or refrigerant levels, clean or replace components, and restore reliable heating.

When a pool pump loses prime it sucks air instead of water, overheating the motor, starving the filter, and leaving the pool with zero circulation. Common causes include a cracked pump lid, a worn lid O-ring, an air leak in the suction plumbing, a clogged skimmer basket, or low water level. A pool and spa technician pressure-tests the suction side, replaces seals or fittings, and verifies steady prime before leaving.

A white, chalky crust along the waterline tile is calcium scale — hard mineral deposits left behind as pool water evaporates. High calcium hardness, elevated pH, or excessive alkalinity accelerate the buildup, and once it bonds to tile or stone it resists normal brushing. A pool and spa technician tests the water chemistry, acid-washes or bead-blasts the affected tile, rebalances calcium hardness and pH, and may apply a sequestering agent to keep minerals in solution and prevent recurrence.

A salt chlorine generator that stops producing chlorine lets sanitizer levels drop, turning the pool cloudy or green within days. The most common cause is calcium scale buildup on the cell plates, but a worn-out cell, low salt concentration, or a faulty control board can also be responsible. A pool technician inspects and acid-washes the cell, tests salt levels and water balance, checks the control board for error codes, and replaces the cell if it has exceeded its lifespan.
