What are the long term effects of chlorine?

Chlorine is a poisonous gas usually used in swimming pools, when breathed in, it can be very dangerous and harmful but used in swimming pools it is highly diluted and if only swallowed occasionally, is harmless. If people swim in chlorinated pools regularly, then their hair can become lighter, although if a persons hair is very blonde, almost white, then long periods in swimming pools can lead to hair gaining a greenish tinge, which can be washed out in a shower or bath. Overall chlorine is dangerous as a gas in air but is harmless in swimming pools, and there are no long term effects.

How long wait chlorine in pool?

I'm not sure what you mean. If your qeustion is how long do you have to wait to swim after adding chlorine, it really depends. If you're adding chlorine to bring the level up to 2.0 or 3.0ppm, then wait minimum 1 hour before swimming, and be sure the filter is on. If you're shocking the pool and bringing the level up to 10-12ppm, you need to wait until the pool reaches a safe level as stated above.
