    No, no, you can broadcast it safely. I would NOT, however broadcast Di-chlor and Cal-hypo together or one right after another. I wouldn't put it in the skimmer though because some un-dissolved Di-Chlor might make it into the chlorinator. Never put di-chlor or (ESPECIALLY) Cal-Hypo in the chlorinator. Very dangerous, even deadly.

    Ah, good. Just to be safe, I'll turn off the inline tri-chlor to isolate it from the system before broadcasting the di-chlor into the pool and turn it on 24 hours later.

    Thanks!

    The wife picked some of this up at costco today. I asked her to pick up some shock at the pool store. She saw this at costco and figured shock is shock. I think they need to be more clear on what effects these things will have on pool chemistry.
