When to Add Pool Chlorine - At Night
Adding chlorine to your swimming pool in the evening instead of the morning can reduce your chemical costs. Here’s why:
Chlorine’s job is to oxidize bacteria, sweat, soaps, suntan lotion, and whatever other contaminants enter your pool. Now, chlorine can do that job just fine overnight. However, if you add chlorine in the morning, a fair portion of the chlorine will be consumed by sunlight-rather than by doing something useful.
So, add chlorine to your pool water at night; you won’t use as much, and your pool water will be cleaner.
Happy swimming!
