    He has been using Bromine for years so Im guessing it will contain amounts of Bromine for some time. Im just trying to figure out where to start for taking readings.
    Thanks

    Follow up - if we drain the pool about half way would that solve the problem?

    In a nutshell, no.
    Here is some info from Ben (PoolDoc)
    http://www.poolsolutions.com/tips/tip10.html

    The second half of this addresses using bromine tabs in a floater.

    Bottom line, you need to drain the pool and get rid of the old bromine feeder.
