If you are not in a great hury wait and the chlorine will disipate of its own accord in a day or 2 do not put on a pool cover.
Use a chlorine reducing agent. They are usually called "After Shock" or something similar. These chemicals are available at your local pool supply store and are usually based on some formulation of sodium thiosulfate.
There is a Materials safety data sheet for sodium thisulfate in the links below.
Just wait a while and the chlorine lever wil go down by its self.
If your chlorine level is too high, you can reduce it by diluting the pool water with fresh water. Another way is to turn off the chlorine feeder and allow the chlorine to naturally diminish over time. Additionally, you can use a chlorine neutralizer to bring down the chlorine levels quickly.
If your total chlorine level is higher than your free chlorine level, it is likely due to the presence of combined chlorine (chloramines). This can cause issues with water sanitation and clarity. To address this, you may need to shock your pool with a superchlorination treatment to break down the chloramines and bring the free chlorine level back into balance. Be sure to follow manufacturer instructions and test the water again after treatment.
To reduce chlorine levels in your pool, you can dilute the water by adding fresh water. You can also utilize a chlorine neutralizer to help bring down the chlorine levels quickly. Additionally, allowing the pool to sit uncovered in direct sunlight can also help to dissipate chlorine.
Any one or thing swimming in the pool will reduce the amount of free chlorine available in the swimming pool. Dog hair body fats and other impurity's will take up free chlorine in the pool thereby reducing the amount of effective chlorine available. Dogs bring into the pool more contaminants than do humans for AA lot of various reasons.
The maximum chlorine that a public pool can have in it and be open for use is 7.0 ppm. You could wait for it to come down on it's own or you can use a declor to bring it down. This is the rule for the state of Indiana deptartment of health.
Muriatic Acid
we used liquid chlorine to raise ours so far it has worked
throw chlorine in it
If the swimming pool water is milky, it is advisable to have the level of stabiliser (cyanuric acid) tested. A level of over 80ppm in the pool water is likely to lead to "chlorine lock" which can turn the water milky. If the problem is the stabiliser, you will need to drain some of the swimming pool water and refill with fresh water to bring the stabiliser level down to 30-50ppm. To avoid the level getting out of control, use a non-stabilised chlorine product such as calcium hypochlorite. http://www.havuz.org/pool_blog/2004_01_01_pool-problems.htm
If there is too much chlorine in your pool, you can first test the water to confirm the high levels. To reduce the chlorine level, you can aerate the water by running the pool pump and opening the pool cover to let sunlight break down the chlorine. You can also partially drain the pool and refill it with fresh water to dilute the chlorine concentration.
To reduce pool chlorine levels, you can dilute the pool water by adding fresh water. Alternatively, you can use a chlorine neutralizer or chlorine reducer product specifically designed for lowering chlorine levels in pools. Be sure to follow the product instructions carefully to avoid over-treating the water.
