Why can I smell chlorine in the pool and patrons complain of burning eyes but my test kit indicates there is no free available chlorine?
It is likely that the chlorine has combined with organic matter in the pool and has formed chloramines. Chloramines have a chlorine-like smell and can cause eye and skin irritation. Use a test kit to determine the amount of combined chlorine. The combined chlorine level should not exceed 0.4 ppm. Adding the appropriate amount of addition free available chlorine will help to eliminate chloramines.
