I'm hoping for many responses. I think that the only way I'm going to have any confidence in my water is hearing from many people that "high" chlorine levels are not risky or uncomfortable. I'm really concerned that I might harm my grand kids et al.
All my pool life, the warnings are the same: keep chlorine levels between 1 - 3 ppm and never exceed 5 ppm. Suddenly I'm told to double that. I've pushed my numbers to go as high as seven and as low as two ppm with a CYA of 50 ppm and seem to be struggling with green algae hiding behind my ladder.
Please tell me your experience swimming with CL levels as high as 8 ppm. Any effects? Are we OK? Will we turn green, shrivel up and. . . well you know.
Every thing else is perfect.
FC = 4
CC = .2
TA = 120
pH = 7.6
CH = 250
CYA = 50
OCLT = Near zero
Sparklin' clear.
Thank you very much.
