Can these tablets be used in a plastic pool?

Yes. I have a 24 foot above ground pool, with a plastic liner, and these chlorine tablets work very well. The chlorine in these tablets is very high, which is getting hard to find these days. Using the Hayward CL200 automatic chlorinator, is the best way to use them, but you can also just put them in your skimmer as needed.

Plastic,such as in a child's wading pool? Or in a full siz above ground pool? If it is the latter, I see no problem. But, to be safe, consult a pool specialist or read the directions on like tabs at a box store.

Chlorine will degrade plastic over time causing it to fade and become brittle. However as long as you are fine with this then you can use these in a plastic pool. It's best to use a floating dispenser or a chorinator to dispense the chlorine into your pool water.

I do not knowI would suggeSt that you contact the manufacture of the poolThey are always very helpful

I don't see why not, however, to be on the safe side I would consult a regular pool dealer. The tablets are standard chlorine tablets, same as used in any pool. Our pool is a vinyl lined pool and about the only thing that may happen is it could cause some fading over time. We use the skimmer to add the chlorine tablets but if your pool does not have one, a floating type chlorine tablet dispenser would also work. Hope that helps.

yes, however use a floating dispenser with one tablet inside. Might be too big for a very small child pool.

I have no idea. It's basically the same chlorine, &ct. you put in pools mixed with a little Oxyclean. I find the tablets rather expensive, so I now go out and get bromine tablets from the pool supply people at 10th the price and have almost no odor and work just as well. I believe that the contents of either tablet simply dissipate into the atmosphere, the same way that chemicals in a swimming pool would, for good or bad...your decision. However the two tablets you put into the dispenser lasts me about 3 months and weighs about 2 ounces. Don't believe that has any serious consequences, but that's up to you. I would use far more than that in household cleaners over that same period.

Yes, I'm sure they would be okay in water. They are elastic bands with a plastic button.

I have not tried to clean mine yet. The residue is glue from the tablets. The problem is that glue residue usually requires a petro product to remove it. It cannot be cleaned still hooked to the pool, it will have to be flushed real good.

I would advise against using with dogs...a hard plastic pool is better, as a dog's claws and teeth and hard play could easily break this.

They are plastic. I am not sure if they would retain the insect repellent if you were in water all day, but for a quick swim they would be okay.

I don't think they would work very...it seems to need a bigger plastic ball.

I have not used them on plastic, however they said they can........and yes soap and water clean everything well

Yes sure. In fact, I think they would last longer if not floating in a pool. I keep mine in the pool all the time now though.

Definitely not! It's just a plastic housing with a couple screws holding it together. If you were to put it under a plastic outlet cover or something, it might be fine near the pool. But it wouldn't survive immersion or splashing by any means.

The cards are 100% plastic so they won't warp when wet. That said, I don't know how well they would float. Safe to use around the pool? Most definitely. To use them in a pool while swimming? I wouldn't recommend it.

I do not know. It is made of plastic and aluminum tubing so, probably not that great. I did not use it for a pool but rather a different purpose for which it didn't work.

Don't know o w about that, I use the 2 inch tablets in a floater and the pool stays clear all year.

No, that is the size but I can't imagine why you'd want it not in complete contact with the water. When exposed to the sun the water keeps the plastic from overheating (by exchanging the heat of the plastic into the water) thus preventing the plastic from rapid deterioration. If your having trouble with the plastic blowing off of the covered pool you might try weighting the plastic down with something, perhaps an un-coiled garden hose?

I do not think so. There are others that are made of plastic which would be more suitable to the outdoors

I never got to use them in the pool but my assumption is that they can be used in shallow waters as long as your feet are not touching the bottom of pool or water environment, you need enough space at the bottom in order to aqua-jug while you are floating

Our pool has an inline chlorine dispenser attached to the pool pump. We can stack about 8 tablets in there. they will last 2-3 weeks. From time to time, we also drop a tablet into the skimmer baskets, if needed to raise the chlorine level faster. As another person stated, a pool repair person told them the chlorine would damage the skimmer. Not true. The skimmer is plastic.
