in your pool. You can put it in anywhere you like. most people like to spread it a round as this will distribute it more quickly throughout the water.
Yes...I found that if you keep your chlorine a bit high in your pool it will stay clear...and by putting the tablets in the skimmer it just helps by releasing the chlorine.
The best thing to do if you are inexperienced in pool maintenance it to take a sample of water from your pool in a clean bottle from about an arms length in depth to you local pool shop. There they will test the water for free and tel you how much chlorine your pool needs. Take along the dimensions of the pool as well for them to calculate the requirements.
Chlorine is usually kept in the pool at all times in the form of a tablet, if you mean the chlorine shock treatment which is a poweder that dissloves into the pool, I'd give it anywhere from 30 minutes to a day, depending on how much powder you've used to how many tablets are currently in the pool. Chlorine won't necessarily hurt you, since we swim in pools with it all the time, but it can burn your olfactory senses.
Not at all. You could put it in at 9 in the morning or 6 at night. It all works exactly the same
Do you have a chlorine generator? No.
normally when there is no reading for chlorine means that you need it, put 1 gallon of liquid shock in your pool. that will raise the chlorine level, cheryl

Flocculates can be added any time you like. And generally should not be put through the filter of the pool.When you add a floculant it is best to stop the pool altogether for a couple of days to allow the flocculate to settle along with the impurity's to the bottom of the pool. you will note a cloudy layer at the bottom of the pool when this has happened.Hand vacuum this layer carefully to waste. Do not put it through the filter. you may have to repeat the procedure until the water is entirely clear.
That depends on what size pool you have. If you have a smaller pool, the amount would be less, and if you have a larger pool, the amount is more. Consult the instructions on a chlorine box for what size pool and how much to use.
