초록색이고 달라붙는
솔질하면 변하는 활성 조류나 바이오필름은 SLAM 또는 검은 성장 경로로 가야 합니다.

치료 전에 진단하기
겉모습과 검사 데이터가 일치할 때만 증상을 다음 페이지로 넘기세요.
회색이고 흐릿한
눈에 띄는 성장 없이 고르게 흐린 물은 먼저 맑은 물 / 탁한 물 흐름으로 보내세요.
반복되는 어두운 반점
이음새나 모서리의 보호된 성장은 검은색과 머스타드 바이오필름 가이드를 필요로 합니다.

검사 결과가 약하거나 흐름 패턴이 불분명하면 강하게 투약하기 전에 기준선을 확인하세요.
Algae Variants and Lookalikes
Classify green algae, pollen, dead residue, mustard algae, black algae, slime, and recurring spots before you choose between brushing, filtration, testing, or SLAM.

0%0/32 done
1
Classify the symptom first
Name what you are seeing before you choose a treatment branch.
2
Take photos and notes before you clean
A daylight photo and a few observations can separate lookalikes that are hard to distinguish by memory alone.
3
Check testing and circulation before dosing hard
When the story is unclear, testing confidence and flow can be more important than the first chemical decision.
Warnings
- Do not stack chemicals on top of an uncertain reading.
4
Choose the branch that fits the symptom
Use the variant that matches the behavior, not just the color.
5
Owner-safe first actions
Do the work that is low risk and directly informative before moving to aggressive recovery.
6
Use filtration and testing tie-breaks
When the diagnosis is split between algae, debris, and lookalikes, let the system behavior decide the next move.
7
Set escalation boundaries
Stop treating every symptom as a homeowner-only problem when the signs say the category is bigger.
질문 (4)
When is SLAM not the first move?
When the symptom looks more like pollen, dead residue, a stain, a localized biofilm, weak circulation, or storm contamination. In those cases, classify the problem first and use the matching playbook if it fits better.
How do I tell green algae from pollen or dead residue?
Active algae usually behaves like growth that comes back, consumes sanitizer, or clings to surfaces. Pollen and dead residue more often track with wind, seasonal load, and mechanical cleanup, even when the water looks green or dull.
What makes mustard or black algae different?
They tend to hide in shaded or protected spots and recur in the same places. If brushing exposes a stubborn patch that keeps returning, use the black-mustard-biofilm branch instead of assuming ordinary green-water recovery is enough.
When should I stop and hand it off?
Stop when you cannot confidently classify the symptom, when the pool may be unsafe to enter, or when the same problem persists after a careful owner-safe pass and the next step depends on professional judgment.

Clear cloudy water
Use the lighter clarity-recovery workflow when the pool is hazy or dusty but not clearly in a full algae event.
SLAM
Use the residential algae-remediation workflow when the symptom really does point to active algae or persistent organic demand.
Black and mustard biofilm
Use the hidden-growth workflow when the symptom returns in the same shaded spots or survives brushing.
Pool water testing and accuracy
Use the testing workflow when the reading confidence is part of the problem and the next dose depends on it.
Filtration and circulation
Use the circulation guide when flow, filter loading, or dead spots are the tie-breaker.
Stains, metals, and discoloration
Use the stain branch when the symptom is attached to the surface but does not behave like growth.
Storm contamination severity
Use the contamination guide when the symptom started after runoff, heavy rain, or another storm-related load.
