Show Notes

In this episode, I talk with Bob Lowry about something many pool owners and pros overlook: how certain pool products—like metal sequestrants—can destroy your chlorine level. Bob explains how these common additives, often used to treat stains or metal issues, can rapidly lower or eliminate free chlorine. We dig into how to identify these products, when it’s okay to use them, and what to do to maintain sanitizer levels when you do.
