This is not a joke and I'm happy I'm still alive. Went outside about 20 minutes ago and took the top off of the Chlorine tank on the pool pump so I could put in some Chlorine in it. Because I'm cleaning the pool out for the summer, but anyways I twist the top off and I look at the nasty greenish water and it hits me, Took my breath away and I instanly started coffin'. I've never really cleaned out a pool before considering we just got one, so don't laught at me for not knowing that Chlorine would do this to you. Right when it hit me I jumped back and started coffin', couldn't stop and it got to the point to where I puked. Then I couldn't stop puking and I couldn't catch my breath.... Then I fell on the ground and I seriously thought that i was about to die, but finally I caught my breath. I still can't take deep breathe's without coffin', so if you didn't know this be careful if you clean out the Chlorine tank on a pool thats been sitting for the winter.

Use Baquacil... less intense chemicals, and MUCH harder to mess up. I've been using it for years. You can use Baquacil and shock your pool, and it's safe to swim in after 4 hours, instead of the 24 hour turnaround with chlorine. It's good stuff, and better for you all around. Less chemicals to irritate skin while swimming and while cleaning.

That reminds me... I need to start opening the pool lol. Little late getting on it this year... I usually get started in April. It's just such a pain lol. I have yet to remove the cover without dumping half the leaves on top of the cover into the pool.

Back in high school I use to work for my dad's pool company and I couldn't believe how many ppl screwed up their pumps and fuc.k ups with Chlorine.
