Can plain household bleach be used as a swimming pool sanitizer

[robbym70]

The pool company gave several lame excuses why household bleach should not be used, but my opinion is that it cut into their profit margin.

Fast learner....I've heard some doozies myself from the pool store on using household bleach. One guy said it was poisonous, would harm swimmers and open me up to a lawsuit. I walked out of the store just laughing to myself and feeling a little sad for the people on the way in.

Thanks again to PoolDoc and company for getting me up and going three seasons ago.
