Would this product be safe to use in a swimming pool with high levels of iron in it?

I would only use it for cleaning purposes. Draining and cleaning the pool with it to get the rust stains out. Also running it through the filter would be fine. After all cleaning is done make sure everything is rinsed thoroughly. Do not, repeat do not put it in the water and start swimming in the pool. This stuff is very caustic.

Yes, but watch your filter pressure as the iron particles may accumulate and clog the filter.

I would not recommend it. They sell pool shock treatments that will work for high iron.

You must never ever run this outside of water.... It will ruin the element... And don't ever use it in a spa with a human in it at the same time.

My pool is salt. I also have a mechanically run cover that keeps it very clean. I only use this and muratic acid. I find that pool stores push a lot of products that are not necessary. Like conditioner/cyanuric acid is only needed at very low levels to prevent chlorine loss.Research it and you'll see 2-20 is range to do its job...not 30-50 like pool companies recommend.

We had an awful problem with phosphates in our pool especially with our well water. Last year in order to get rid of the problem we used PhosFree Commercial strength and that took care of it. Probably a good idea to start with the Commercial strength then maintain with the regular PhosFree. Overall a great product! We love the liquid solar cover by Natural Chemistry too - it works.

I don't see anything wrong with it.... I can tell you that this is the only product ive used that gets rid of set in body odor stains... So ill still be using it... I guess it depends on what you believe to be dangerous, I don't see anything in it that would be terribly harmful, the chlorine in your water would probably do you more harm than anything in this product.

Only use sodium chloride (NaCi) salt that is at least 99.8% pure. No iodine or yellow. Check with a local pool supply, grocery, or hardware store

Sure. I swam laps in the pool with mine. Just be sure to rinse it well. The chlorine is hard on it.

BTI isn't approved for human consumption, and only keeps mosquito (and black fly) larvae from maturing. It is not a repellant and won't keep insects from landing in the pool. Don't think I'd use in in water that kids play in.

No, this product failed in my ceramic tub after three or four showers. There is no way it would hold up in chlorine. You would have to drain the pool somewhat to let it cure but even then it doesn't stick. The claims on the label don't match reality.

my guess is a pool with chlorine will not make it rust, but I'm not 100% sure. salt water pool maybe, but a chlorine pool isn't a salt water pool.

I'm afraid I have not used it for that purpose yet. From what I understand you may need a pump in conjunction with the iron. I cannot imagine it would not work well. It heats up nice and the led light really help you to see what you are doing.

I used it in a slightly larger inflatable pool and it worked well. Still had to add a little chemicals on and off

That is exactly what I did, and it works just fine. I spoke with an employee at the pool store and he said there should be some chlorine in the pool. The system will maintain levels. So far I have been quite happy with system. Make sure you buy a water conditioner, so calcium doesn't build up so fast on the salt cell.

Yes it is safe. However, before you use it on your phone, test it by putting a slip of paper in it. Leave it at the bottom of the pool for about 1 minute. If it comes out dry, it's safe to use on your phone.

How are you doing, Rlizabeth? I bought this item from Amazon.com a couple of years ago. While it is well made, and I like this item, I don't believe that it is waterproof. For one thing, the weights are in individual, unsealed pouches whereby water can easily enter. Therefore, there is no way to keep them dry and potentially rust-free. That being said, I would not recommend them for aqua excercises in the pool. But, if you're looking for a neat, cool weight training aide, these would definitely fit the bill. Good luck and please have a good day! Rafiah.

Good question, as I had the same concern (most seemed to be for in ground pools). I have an above-ground pool and this works great in it.

yes. I use in swimming pool. If using for camping, I don't think there would be any problem
