HELP CENTER

Yes. We have many customers who test their pools in between pool service days. Some customers not only attempt to handle their own pool chemical evaluation and monitoring, but also maintenance. Although some pool owners can handle these task, achieving proper water chemistry in your pool can be tedious. Without professional help, you can risk having incorrect pH and chlorine levels in your pool. Running your pool unbalanced for too long can not only make swimming unpleasant or even unsafe, but also potentially damage your pool.

This scenario may make you feel like you are putting too much chlorine in your pool. But this scenario happens when you don’t have enough “free chlorine” or productive chlorine in your pool. Most chlorine pools contain both productive chlorine and unproductive chlorine. The productive chlorine is called "free chlorine" and is the chemical which sanitizes and kills germs. Unproductive chlorine, is called “combined chlorine” and is a poor sanitizer and germs killer. Too much "combined chlorine" in your pool causes the strong chlorine odor. Although it produces this strong odor, the "combined chlorine" is stagnant and clumped up not releasing the necessary sanitation and germ killing properties that it should. When the combined chlorine level reaches 0.2 ppm or more, it is time to shock your water. Shocking your pool water will eliminate the odor and break apart the "combined chlorine" creating "free chlorine" once again.
