    Default Re: Why is a chlorine floater a bad idea?

    Extensive use of stabilized chlorine tablets (trichlor) can lead to too much stabilizer (cyanuric acid) which does not break down over time. This can lead to the chlorine being less effective at sanitizing. If you search this site, you will find extensive discussions regarding this potential problem.
