    Converting to Rola-Chem for liquid chlorine dispensing

    I'm considering getting a Rola-Chem tank and peristaltic pump for liquid chlorine to mitigate the CYA buildup issues with tabs. I know the line from the rola-chem should be plumbed in the pool return line past the heater. Obviously with this setup I would predominantly be just using liquid...

Also should I put the chlorine tablets in the skimmer or floater? And if I use the floater do I take it out of the pool when the filter is off? Sorry for all the...

    Hi. Brand new to this site and forum. Also new to owning a pool. Just bought a 10ft round pool for my kids - stands 2.5 ft tall. Based on my calculations (using the formula Pi x Radius squared x depth of pool x 7.5) 3.14 x (5x5) x 2.5 x 7.5= 1472 I’m estimating the pool to be under 1500...
