Shocking /AutoPilot/bromine

[Poolsean]

Non-chlorine shock, or possium monopersulfate is fine for shocking. However, it is not a bromine based product. Any salt chlorinator can be converted to a bromine generator with the addition of the bromine salt and in the dosage recommended.
Bromine generator has no advantages over chlorine generator, and adds to the cost of sanitizing your pool.

Yes, any form of chlorine can be used to shock your pool if needed.
We recommend the non-chlorine shock as it is quick to oxidize and for areas of the country that is hard water areas, a non chlorine shock eliminates the additional calcium of the cal hypo type shocks. Household bleach, pool store bleach, granular tri-chlor, di-chlor, cal hypo...any form of chlorine can be used to shock....and as Michael says, it's better to shock this way than to activate the Boost mode or superchlorinate mode of the salt generator as it takes away from the cell life.

It does not affect the warranty.

Hasta banana...I'm off to Cancun for the day.
