I'm looking for pool shock to sanitize my drinking water. Will this work?

I have heard of people using pool shock to sanitize drinking water but I can not promote the use of any pool shock for this purpose. You will want to contact the NSF for further information.

No matter how much chlorine shock I put in my pool the chlorine level is always low. What can I do?

I would first make sure that you are testing the total chlorine AND free chlorine. If they are not the same reading, you may have a chlorine lock. If the chlorine levels are the same, I would check the pH, alkalinity and cyanuric acid levels.

Is it true that if I have a vinyl pool I can only use liquid shock?
 Reply

A  Answered on 10/25/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

You can use granular or powdered shock with a vinyl pool as well. Before adding the shock to the pool, you want to add it to a bucket of pool water to pre-dissolve it.

My swimming pool is clear but when my kids and I went swimming, our eyes burned. My neighbor came by and checked and said that the pool should be fine because he can smell the chlorine. What is wrong with my pool?
 Reply

It sounds like you have chloramines. Chloramines are formed any time ammonia and nitrogen are in the water. Chloramines smell bad and cause skin and eye irritation. You can resolve the problem using this method.

I think I have a chlorine lock in my swimming pool. How did I get it and how can I get rid of it?
 Reply

A  Answered on 12/20/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Chlorine lock is a condition in your swimming pool when the chlorine levels ( free chlorine and total chlorine) are not the same which makes the chlorine useless. You can read more here.
