4 Types of Chlorine | Trichlor and Dichlor

00:47 - Where's Jarred? Oh yeah, we lost that recording... oops.

01:18 - "Stabilized" refers to two different things: sunlight protection for chlorine, and safer storage and handling.

03:10 - What are the dangers of having too much Cyanuric Acid (CYA)?

06:15 - Advantages of dichlor over trichlor?

07:49 - How much CYA does trichlor put into the water? Answer: 6 to 6.5 ppm per pound, per 10,000 gallons of water. Two 3" tabs = one pound of Trichlor.

09:23 - Do you even know how high your CYA is? If you're over 100 ppm, did you take the time to dilute the sample? And even if not, you should dilute your pool and lower your CYA regardless. It's already too high.

10:46 - Trichlor lowers (or suppresses) pH, and lowers alkalinity gradually. You need higher alkalinity in your pool to account for this.

12:25 - Never put trichlor in the skimmer!
