The best way is to scrub the affected area with either chlorine or muriatic acid (you can find several types of bathroom cleaners and other similar products that have muriatic acid in them). Muriatic acid is a type of hydrochloric acid. You can also use vinegar but it takes longer than the others and doesn't work quite as well. \r\rHowever, if you want to avoid using chemicals, there are other ways to get rid of algae (and other stains from the environment) without resorting to harsher cleaners. You could cover the stained area with some cooking oil (it works almost like bleach) since this will prevent sunlight from penetrating the surface and activating more growth. Another option is mixing baking soda, lemon juice, and hydrogen peroxide. Make sure to measure equal parts of each ingredient and mix until it forms a paste that you can apply directly to the algae. Leave it on for about twenty minutes, rinse it off with water from your garden water hose, and wipe the surface dry with a microfibre cloth - you should be all set!\r\rAlgae and any other type of mould native to the area will usually grow back within a few days or weeks if not properly taken care of; you'll need to create a cleaning schedule of roughly once per week until they stop appearing (which could take anywhere from two weeks to two months depending on the weather, how often it's exposed to sunlight, and the environment around your pool area). If at any point during this process your glass pool fence begins deteriorating or starts looking dull, then that means too much acid is being used; ease up on what you're using and the stains should clear up in no time.

This is probably one of the hardest things to deal with on a glass fence since it tends to build up around the edges and corners of panels where they come in contact with each other most often. For cleaning these areas thoroughly, you should use either muriatic acid or bleach before trying anything else; this will get rid of any dirt that might be holding them in place so nothing gets in the way when you're finally ready to remove them. \r\rOnce everything looks clear, use some baking soda mixed with vinegar until it forms a paste (measure no more than two parts baking soda for every part vinegar). Apply this mixture all across the panel where there are visible stains, and let it sit for at least one hour. You can leave it on longer if you want but anything more than three hours will have a pretty big impact on the overall look of the glass so take care not to overdo it.\r\rOnce time is up, rinse off your glass pool fence with water from your water hose and scrub that area again with a microfibre cloth just to make sure all the paste has been removed. It doesn't matter what order you do these two things in as long as they're both completed before moving on to the next step. \r\rFinally, sprinkle some salt directly onto the calcium stains and let them soak overnight (or for at least six hours).

Make sure that whatever you're pouring doesn't overflow since you don't want any of these chemicals getting inside your pool!\r\rOnce you've done this, pick up the other rag/towel off the floor so it can be used to wipe away any remaining residue once everything has been allowed enough time to work.
