What do you do when your pool has too much chlorine and the pH is still at the correct level?
How do you know that it is too high? If you are using a home test kit it will show the total chlorine, which includes free chlorine and combined chlorine. Only free chlorine can sanitize the pool. Combined chlorine is broken apart by "shocking" the pool with 1L liquid chlorine per 10000L of water in the pool. (For most pools 10L is fine if you're unsure of the pool volume.) Chlorine will disipate on its own anyways. Sidenote: Are you using a lot of chlorine pucks? They contain stabilizer, which is used to keep the chlorine from burning off in the sun too quickly. If it is overused the chlorine will burn off too slowly.
Are you getting readings above 10.0 ppm of chlorine? What is too high? Do you smell the chlorine? Then there's not enough chlorine. Simple as that.

What else can I help you with?
I have turned the chlorine generator down to about 40 yet the chlorine level still read 4400?

How much salt do you use on a 25000 gallon pool that you just filled with water?
You'll need about 240 pounds to start, to get chlorine level to correct amount
Can you put too much shock in your pool?
Shocking should be done in order to kill the chloramines. It depends on your chlorine level. For residential pools it should be 1.5-2.5ppm. For commercial, chlorine should be 3.5-4.5ppm. If you have just shocked, don't go in the water. The chlorine is probably 10-12ppm and will cause itching and burning. Wait until the level drops to a safe level, as stated above.
How can i get my chlorine level up?
To increase the chlorine level in your pool, you can add chlorine tablets, granules, or liquid chlorine according to the manufacturer's instructions. It's important to regularly test the water to ensure the chlorine level stays within the recommended range for safe swimming. Avoid adding too much chlorine, as this can lead to irritation and other issues.
How do you know if there is too much chlorine in a pool?
Use a test strip or test kit. They will tell you your chlorine level. You want it between a 1 and a 3.
How much liquid chlorine equals a 3 inch chlorine tablet?
There is no direct conversion between liquid chlorine and chlorine tablets because they come in different forms and concentrations. It's best to follow the manufacturer's instructions on how much liquid chlorine is needed to achieve the same sanitation level as a 3-inch chlorine tablet in your specific pool or spa.
How much chlorine is used in a swimming pool?
Chlorine level should stay between 1.0 and 3.0 parts per million (ppm) to maintain a healthy pool.
How much 1 percent chlorine would it take to raise the level to 1?
This will depend on the size of the holder.
How much chlorine for pool?
The amount of chlorine needed for a pool can vary based on its size, the current chlorine level, and environmental factors. It's best to use a pool water test kit to determine the chlorine levels and then follow the manufacturer's instructions on how much chlorine to add to achieve the appropriate levels for safe swimming.
How much liquid chlorine do you need to use for a abouve ground pool 18x42 or 5700?
Chlorine level in an 18' above ground pool should be between 2 and 4.
How much chlorine to a 15 ounce bottle of water?
To solve this question, we need to figure out how much chlorine should be added to 15 ounces of water to achieve a mixing ratio of 1 part chlorine to 10 parts water. So, you would need 1.5 ounces of chlorine to add to 15 ounces of water to get the correct ratio of 1 part chlorine to 10 parts water.
What could cause chlorine levels to rise in a pool?
Don't do anything. Chlorine goes away on its own, which is why you must monitor it and keep it at the correct level. If you have too much, wait a few days. If it is hotter than normal out, the chlorine will go away faster than normal.
