Miraclear Clarifier

[Poolsean]

Well, remember, when you add anything into the pool, you are adding to the TDS (total dissolved solids) level, which can lead to cloudiness. You can use clarifier, and even for a maintenance dose, but as is the philosophy on this site, why use more than you really need? Keep on top of your pool and you shouldn't have these types of problems or need all the extra chemicals that a pool store will try to sell you.

Salt on the other hand.....

I agree with Sean--why add junk you don't need? You and your kids are going to injest some of it so it better be there for a reason.

Yeah, we keep it simple here. Simple and effective!

Salt is another story--lots of people like the way it feels, and our own body chemistry is slightly saline.
