Chlorine is the backbone of pool care—but are you using it correctly?

In this episode of the Chlorine King Podcast, we kick off our Pool Chemical Series by breaking down everything you need to know about chlorine in swimming pools.

Whether you're a homeowner or a pool service pro, understanding chlorine is key to keeping your pool clean, safe, and crystal clear.

We cover:

  • What chlorine actually does in your pool
  • Different types of chlorine (liquid, tablets, granular)
  • The pros and cons of each type
  • Proper chlorine levels and how to maintain them
  • The role of stabilizer (CYA) and how it affects chlorine
  • Common chlorine mistakes that lead to cloudy or green pools

If your pool water isn’t staying clear—or you’re constantly fighting algae—this episode will help you fix it.
