I just found out that there is no such thing as a chemical added to pools that turns the water blue when someone pees in it. Chlorine also doesn't irritate your eyes, it's actually all the pee, sweat and poo...
A clean pool doesn't even smell! It's all that damn pee, sweat and poop! What is this?! My whole life has been a lie!
If the pool has RECENTLY been chlorinated it will irritate the yes, there is a set wait period for swimming after for the chemical to dissipate.
We dont get in the pool when the pool guys been there, and wait a day or so
But dirty pools, ew, always check the water rim to see if its scuzzy before deciding to swim.
