How do you get chlorine level up in swimming pool?

I have treated for metals and algae and now have a problem getting the chlorine levels up. The ph, hardner and alkilinity is ok.


What is a safe chlorine for swimming?

Someone/something changed the original question and that is probably why it has not been answered.Safe levels for chlorine are 1.5 ppm to about 5.0 ppm. of free chlorine. You should have a test kit that will give you free chlorine readings as opposed to just a chlorine residual. Free chlorine is what sanitizes the pool water. If you can smell a chlorine odor coming from your pool then you do not have enough chlorine in the water.K


How effective is chlorine?

If you are asking about chlorine's effectiveness at destroying viruses, bacteria and other various contaminents then it is in the lead among alternative sanitizers. Chlorine sees a whole laundry list of things as foreign contaminents and destroys them on contact. The virus crypto-sporidium however is fairly immune to regular chlorine levels in a swimming pool in which case regular shocking with a mono-persulfate shock in conjunction with normal chlorine levels should remedy that and put your mind at ease.


What do you do if chlorine in saltwater pool is high?

Adjust your chlorine generator levels.


What can neutralize chlorine in a swimming pool?

Sodium thiosulfate. You can purchase at pool stores. If for the purpose of draining the pool water to the streets or sewer system you need to neutralize the chlorine or just let it drop on it's own to those levels needed. If on the other hand you have in access of 10.0 ppm chlorine then wait a few days for those levels to drop at their own rate. Otherwise, the water is safe even at 10.0 ppm. to swim in.

Does geothermal energy smell?

If by geothermal energy, you are referring to electricity produced using geothermal energy, no it doesn't smell, because energy in any form doesn't smell. On the other hand, a geothermal power plant may give off a "rotten eggs" smell. This is due to hydrogen sulfide being present in the steam collected from the geothermal reservoir. Although the hydrogen sulfide is treated to reduce it to non-toxic levels, hydrogen sulfide can be smelled at levels as low as a few parts per billion. Since geothermal plants won't always be able to remove all of the hydrogen sulfide, some will be released, accounting for the smell.


Can regular swimming cause hair fall due to chlorine..what are the safe levels for chlorine in pools?

You can check the pool chlorine levels with some litmus paper the levels need to be between 7.2 and 7.6 on the ph scale it would need a lot of chlorine for hair to fall out Safe levels are below 5ppm chlorine. You won't die if you swim in 10 ppm once or twice, but there could be harmful effects if you swim very regularly in high doses.

we have a quick set 16x42 pool, my chlorine remains low?

You can buy a testing kit and test your water to see if there are any abnormal bacteria in your water that would be keeping the chlorine levels low. Otherwise, just add chlorine daily to keep your pool safe for swimming.
