Black Algae Treatment in Lantana, TX
Black algae colonies are the hardest pool problem to fix. Normal shock won't touch them — the biofilm protects the colony. Our protocol breaks through: aggressive brushing, copper-based chemistry, and phosphate starvation.
What our black algae covers in Lantana
Specialized black-algae protocol. The colonies live in plaster pits and grout lines protected by a tough biofilm — if you don't break the biofilm mechanically before applying chemistry, nothing works. We bring stainless brushes, copper-based algaecide, and a 3-visit follow-up schedule.
- ✓Stainless-brush mechanical scrub on every visible colony + surrounding area
- ✓Copper-based algaecide at shock-level concentration
- ✓Triple-dose calcium-hypochlorite spot-shock directly onto pitted areas
- ✓Phosphate removal to starve any surviving cells
- ✓Filter deep-clean each visit (black algae re-seeds from filter media)
- ✓3-visit follow-up over 7-10 days to confirm kill

Lantana water profile
Lantana is served by the Bartonville Water Supply Corporation and Denton County Fresh Water Supply District, providing municipal-quality water with moderate mineral content (300-400 ppm TDS). Water chemistry is consistent and well-suited for pool maintenance, particularly for the salt chlorine generators common in the community. Some western portions of Lantana may have slightly higher mineral content depending on the specific water supply district.
Lantana pool & equipment mix
Lantana pools are predominantly modern residential installations from 2005-2020. Most feature quality plaster or pebble finishes, cartridge filtration, variable-speed or dual-speed pumps, and salt chlorine generators. LED lighting and basic automation are common. Many homes feature integrated pool and spa designs with water features. Pool sizes typically range from 12,000 to 30,000 gallons.
