Adding Bleach Method

[Poconos]

With the pump running the dilution by pouring in the skimmer is so great and the contact time with the various components is so short there should be no concern about damage.

I stopped adding to the skimmer after discovering what it was doing to the pump seal.
I had to change out my pump motor this summer. The motor had a 12 month warranty and it had only been in 9 months. When I installed the motor last year I had installed a new seal. I checked the seal while I had it apart and the rubber was hardened and showing signs of cracking.
At the time the motor went out, I was shocking my pool a high levels just after opening. Since I didn't have but a month last year and 2 weeks this year running the pump, I'm convinced it was the high chlorine level that was getting to the seal.
