On the Verge of a More Active Algae Season than Ever Before Due to a Nation Wide Chlorine Shortage â There Are Steps That You Can Take to Prevent a Swamp Green Disaster.
There are many fantastic books on pool care available that some exceptionally brilliant people have written. But, what we are lacking are publications and courses that are in-depth and topic-specific. I saw that a program on algae was one of those missing, so I have written âHow to Get Rid of Swimming Pool Algaeâ. Iâve been through and taught other programs that merely touch upon the topic. Still, there wasnât really anything available that offered enough education to equip one with the knowledge necessary to remedy algae problems as folks encounter them in the field.

GREEN TO CLEAN
It doesnât make sense that people are forced to reinvent the wheel and employ a trial and error mean to develop a successful protocol of care. The pool industry has been very good to me, and I would like to âpay it forward.â So, I have written this book based on my thirty years of experience and developed the Algae Prevention and Eradication Specialist certification program.
As I said, the goal is âpaying it forwardâ. That is why within the first few pages you will see that this book is dedicated to the people who maintain swimming pool(s) for a living. This book is for them â this book is for you.

âRudy, your field samples are very interesting â and rare. There is almost nothing published on the varieties of algae in pools⌠If you focus on black âalgae,â you will be the first person in nearly 40 years to document it. That would be really, really cool.â â Dr. Roy D. Vore, Ph.D., Microbial physiologist, Senior Consultant, Vore & Associates LLC, previously Technology Manager, BioLab inc.
âFascinating!!!â â Dr. Tom Lachocki. Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer, Executive Legacy LLC, previously Chief Executive Officer, National Swimming Pool Foundation
âInteresting Rudy. I think it points to the importance of conducting a larger study where a number of pools are sampled to look for trends and how and if the trends correlate to certain pool parameters (indoor vs. outdoor, disinfectant used, maintenance schedule, typical swimmer profile, etc.). It also demonstrates the importance of validating the efficacy of a product in a field trial(s). At the end of the day, the best approach may be tailored treatment plans that are optimized for each pools, similar to the âpersonalized medicineâ trend. Good work!â â Darla Goeres Ph.D., Center for Biofilm Engineering, Montana State University
