My pool and hot tub water looks a little cloudy - is this a chemical imbalance or is my equipment working improperly?

Dingy water could be a result of several things but is most likely due to a PH chemical imbalance. Clearene can rectify this for you by preforming a "pool shock" which will balance the chemicals in your water and take your pool or hot tub from green to clean.

We will also investigate your pool or hot tub to make sure all equipment is working properly and discuss how you can prevent this from happening in the future.
