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>

Q: What is a good-sized pool for a small backyard?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/small-backyard-ideas.htm">Small backyards</a> are not a reason to write off fun upgrades like an above ground pool. You can find both soft and hard-sided above ground pools as small as 8 feet in diameter as well as 9-by-18-feet rectangles or 10-by-16-feet ovals. You will need at least 2 to 3 feet around the outside of your pool for additional support and for placing pool equipment, but a professional pool installer can help you find a model that's right for your tiny outdoor space.</p></div>

Q: Do frogs lay eggs in swimming pools?

• <div><p>Yes, pools provide a safe, covered, and cool environment for frogs to lay eggs. Frogs also require calm water to lay their eggs, so having a constant flow of water from a pool pump or water feature will deter frogs from laying eggs in your pool.</p></div>

Q: Can you put too much salt in a pool?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to put too much salt in your saltwater pool, and doing so can cause a number of problems, including corroding metal parts and causing the chlorinator to stop working correctly. In general, slightly elevated salt levels won&rsquo;t cause serious problems beyond salty-tasting water, but you should dilute the water in a pool with extremely high salt levels to prevent damage to its components.</p></div>
