Adding MA while SWCG is on?

[Nectarologist]

Hi. I know not to mix muriatic acid and bleach / chlorine but what about adding MA with the SWCG running? I just installed a Circupool and thought of this as I went to add MA. I slowly pour the MA in front of one of the returns (where the chlorine comes out, of course). I'd rather not turn my SWCG on/off each time I add MA. I'm hoping the chlorine from the SWCG is such a small amount that it's not an issue. I haven't read anything negative but figured I'd ask.
Thank you.

I never thought of it that way. However, I dump my MA in front of the return with the filter on and the SWG going.

It should befine. Once the chlorine and MA are in the water there is much less risk of any issues.

The water coming out of the jet is not a very high concentration of chlorine ... it may only be 1-2ppm higher than the bulk of the pool.
