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.
It depends on how big the pool is. From :)
This depends on the size of the pool. Generally, when you buy chlorine, it should say on the bag or box how much to use for what size pool.
Measure it out then dump it in. It will gradually mix in.
Use a chlorine reducing agent. You can get them at the pool supply. One is called After Shock, but there are others.
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.
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.
about 3 oz.
There is no such thing.
you don't put chlorine in the bath tub you put it in pool,and hot tubs, public water ect.
You need a test kit
It depends how much you use it. If you use it a lot then yes. If you don't use it a ton then you don't need it. however if it is outside then it needs chlorine no matter how much you use it.
how much chlorine do I put for a 1,718 gallon pool

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
