Are your readings at zero or are they at six? How old is your test kit an solutions? Replace and test again. When did you back wash or clean the filter? Have you added chlorine stabilizer?

When do you need to use chlorine tablets?

Chlorine tablets dissolve slowly and do a good job of maintaining chlorine levels. TriChlor (the most common type of chlorine tablets) are stabilized and have a low pH. As such, they partner well with liquid or granular chlorine, since both are generally unstabilized and have a high pH.Do not put chlorine tablets into a skimmer. They have a low pH that could damage pump seals and heaters. The damage is most pronounced when the pump restarts after the tablets have had a chance to dissolve for several hours and have lowered the pH in the water that is sitting in the skimmer. At this time, a couple of gallons of really low pH water will flow through the system.Floaters or inline dispensers are the best way to use tablets.

Kids would play with the tablets and hurt or blind themselves. Chlorine was one of the first poison gases used in ww1, you need to be careful. The floating containers for tablets are not that expensive.
