Usage

• The idea is to use chlorine bleach in place of chlorine purchased from a pool supply store. When you add the bleach to the water, you use the same ratio as recommended by your swimming pool's manufacturer.
  
  

Considerations

• Pool Solutions recommends using a generic store brand chlorine bleach, as opposed to one of the name brands because it contains the right ratio of chemicals. The site also suggests using a bleach with 5.25-percent hypochlorite and one that lacks any artificial scents or colors.
  
  

Warning

• The Environmental Controls & Methods, Inc. warns against using chlorine bleach if you have well water or drain your swimming pool on site. The bleach can seep into the ground and potentially infiltrate your drinking water.
