I'm just getting into my pool build. I am going with Chlorine (no SWCG). Do I need an auto feeder of some sort or is this for the tablets only ???
I've always wondered about the phrase, "just dump the bleach in by hand." It may sound stupid, but are you literally adding the bleach directly into the pool?
Yes. That's why we sayWith a Vinyl liner pool, do you have to be careful where you pour it so you don't fade/bleach the pool liner? I would imagine a high concentration of bleach hitting one spot of the liner might be harmful??
Bleach should be added to the pool by pouring slowly in front of a return jet with the pump running. You should pour slowly enough that pouring an entire jug takes more than one minute, preferably two minutes. Leave the pump running for at least 30 minutes after adding bleach.

That's how I add my bleach. Doesn't take long to dump a quart in there.
