    I've been dumping off the diving board into the deep end of our pool. Is this OK? We have an outlet in the shallow end, with a 90 degree angle pipe directing the flow towards the deep end (down slightly to get the water at the bottom moving), a skimmer in the middle of the pool, and an inlet sucking straight in in the deep end. Is the chlorine just being sucked into the inlet and into our filter?
    26,000 gal IG vinyl liner pool (20'x40'), Waterway SMF-110 wet end w/ Century SQS-1072R motor, Pac-Fab Triton TR60 sand filter, K-2006A. Manually added chems: 12.5% NaClO liquid, granular CYA, baking soda, 31% muriatic acid.

    If you have an in-line chlorinator do NOT pour bleach into the skimmer!

    My preferred way is to pour the bleach directly into the return stream.
