In a swimming pool most people tend to believe that when they smell chlorine that there is way too much chlorine in there pool. Therefore they do not add it. Chlorine in its natural form is a gas. And chlorine does gas off your pool. So you can't smell chlorine while its in the water but you can smell it while it's in the air as a gas. Hence the chlorine is not in your pool Bottom Line: When You smell chlorine, it means there is little or no chlorine left in your pool. There is something called good chlorine and bad chlorine. If you ever get your pool tested, good chlorine is what we call free chlorine and bad chlorine is combined or total chlorine. The bad chlorine also called chlormines create a gas which is where the odor comes from. So it comes from bad chlorine. You can always smell chlorine when you go to a water park or a public pool so be careful.
To get rid of the chlorine order you can either shock the pool and gas off all the chlorine or just add more chlorine to super chlorinate.
