Totally. um, ever heard of unsanitary water. Someone could have just peed in the pool. Someone who recently had diahrea who is or was in the pool - lethal. Many, many other diseases to numerous to mention. Even if the water looks clear - you can't see germs. - it is not a safe practice!
As long the pool is sanitized in other ways. There are several other ways a pool can be safe and not use chlorine.
If the free chlorine in the pool is at a reasonable level then the chlorine is able to do its job which is to kill the micro organisms that can harm you.
no cuz then ur blood
No, it is not.
no!
Chlorine is a chemical that helps purify swimming pool water to make it safe for people who are in it.
My brother has a salt water pool which is a chlorine treated pool and his dog seems to prefer drinking out of the pool been doing it for years and is perfectly healthy.
It is safe. That just means that the chlorine is not actively killing bacteria. It would be unsafe if there was too much chlorine.
Be careful when testing for chlorine. No chlorine will have a clear reading but too much chlorine will cause bleaching of the test reagent confusing you to think you have no chlorine in the pool, try doing a dilution test where you dilute half pool water and half tap water, If coloured results appear with dilution you know you have too much chlorine. Swimming with too much chlorine can cause skin rashes irritations, discolouring of swim wear rotting the stitches, and blacken jewellry.
Not necessarily. If pool water has recently been shocked, the chlorine level may be too high to swim even if the water is clear. Shocking can result in 10 ppm or more of chlorine. The EPA deems up to 4 ppm as safe. Swimming occasionally in a highly chlorinated pool may not be an issue for adults. But excessive chlorine has been known to trigger asthma attacks in children. Also, you should rinse or bathe immediately after swimming to avoid irritated skin from the excess chlorine. A general rule for applying all chemicals to a pool is to wait a minimum of 3 hours before swimming. That gives the chemicals time to dilute and be distributed evenly in the pool. The exception to that rule is high chlorine, which is described above.
You can buy a testing kit and test your water to see if there are any abnormal bacteria in your water that would be keeping the chlorine levels low. Otherwise, just add chlorine daily to keep your pool safe for swimming.
Someone/something changed the original question and that is probably why it has not been answered.Safe levels for chlorine are 1.5 ppm to about 5.0 ppm. of free chlorine. You should have a test kit that will give you free chlorine readings as opposed to just a chlorine residual. Free chlorine is what sanitizes the pool water. If you can smell a chlorine odor coming from your pool then you do not have enough chlorine in the water.K
I would not recommend it, the bubbles could get into the pipes of the pool which could cause problems with the water that runs out of the pipe. It is also could affect the chlorine in the pool.
No. I don't know the effects of chlorine, but I do know you can't ingest it, and it will likely kill your plants.
Here is the deal. a "salt water pool" IS a chlorine pool. Only difference is, on a chlorine pool u add chlorine. In a salt pool u add salt and a "Salt Generator" turns the sslt into chlorine... so really both pools use chlorine.... Just saves u the trouble of messing with chlorine and chlorine shocks..
no it is not
It's important because some people have allergic reactions to chlorine. Depending on the pH level they can, then determine if it's safe to enter the water.
