My family's two pools (one AG, one IG) have always just put the 3" tablets in the skimmer. They've done it for years with appearently no ill effects. How much is a new skimmer basket anyway? Or a whole new skimmer for that matter? $50 for the whole thing maybe? They've never lost a pump or filter from it. Those pools were up for 10-15 years I bet.

Isn't this just a bunch of horse hockey so they can sell inline chlorinators?
