a question for the "puck gurus"

[CarlD]

1) The top of the floater is ALWAYS a lot wider than the puck area for bouyancy, so it doesn't flow directly down the pool wall
2) They have slits in the sides, not the bottom, so the chlorine sort of trickles out, pre-dissolve in the water in the floater.
3) adjustable ones allow you to dial down the slit size
4) It just doesn't seem to be a problem
5) The REAL problem is keeping them from going to the skimmer opening and sticking there!

(PS: I rarely use puck either )

If you have a ladder then tie a string around the floater and to the ladder, sort of like those floating thermometers have. If you don't have a ladder then find something else not near the skimmer to tie it to. I used to do this in my portable hot tub when I used bromine tabs in it to keep the floater from 'going crazy' when I turned on the bubblers.
