Q: What kills algae in aboveground pools?

• <div><p>The best way to kill off an algae bloom in an aboveground pool is to shock it with a large dose of chlorine. Shock typically kills off algae in about one to three days, although it can take longer if the pool water is in poor condition. After the shock treatment, add algaecide to prevent algae from growing back, and test the water every few days with test strips to ensure the pool&rsquo;s pH doesn&rsquo;t get out of whack.</p></div>
