If you want a pool that sparkles all year round and that is safe for swimming then you need to maintain your swimming pool. The chemical balance is what makes the pool safe and clean to swim in. By using a chlorine tablet when it is necessary and other substances to keep the chemistry correct you will be able to achieve this. Your family and you will enjoy many years of carefree and fun swimming in the pool.
When water and the chlorine tablet are mixed, a chemical reaction takes place and this will cause the removal of the following from your pool: oxidizing pollutants, legionella bacteria, microbes, odors and bio film. This process happens almost immediately after the tablet has hit the water. Remember to take the tablet out of the packaging before placing the tablet in the water. The reason all of this takes place is that C102 gas is released from the tablet when the tablet is exposed to water. This allows the maintenance of microbiological activity in the water.
Other uses for chlorine tablets are to treat water in industrial processes like: health care and veterinary services, keeping food processing plants clean, cooling systems and cooling towers and water storage tanks. It is also used in water that is re circulated in water-cooling systems. Industrial cleaners contain chlorine, as do household cleaners albeit in a diluted form. In emergency cases, water can be cleansed and purified with these tablets.

To protect the heating elements of the skimmer in the pool it is advisable to put the tablet into a chlorine basket. The pH balance is maintained due to cyuranic acid that is added to chlorine tablets.
The amount and frequency of tablets to be used in the pool are dependent on the size of the pool and how strong the chlorine tablet is. Directions should be followed to the letter and these will be on the package.
