Will normal chlorine levels in a swimming pool damage copper piping heater?

Chlorine is a highly reactive chemical that can corrode copper piping over time. The higher the chlorine level in the water, the faster the corrosion will occur. In some cases, chlorine can even cause copper pipes to burst.

To prevent corrosion, it is important to keep the chlorine level in your swimming pool within the recommended range of 1-3 ppm. You should also avoid using chlorine tablets that contain high levels of cyanuric acid, as this can also contribute to corrosion.

If you are concerned about the potential for copper pipe corrosion, you can have your pool water tested for copper levels. If the copper level is too high, you may need to take steps to reduce it. This can be done by draining some of the pool water and refilling it with fresh water, or by using a water conditioner that contains a copper corrosion inhibitor.
