Most pool repair professionals suggest waiting before using your pool after chemical or water treatments. In many cases, you can go for a swim just 15 minutes to an hour after adding chemicals to your swimming pool. However, certain chemicals might require you to wait up to 12 hours before use. If you’re unsure of when it’s safe to reenter your swimming pool, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Hawkins Service Company.
