Many of the myths that surround your swimming pool have little truth behind them, but many people still share them around the pool. So, we are here to set the record straight.

Shocking while surveys have found that one in five Americans admit to using a pool as a bathroom, there is no chemical to catch anyone in the act.

Maybe you or someone you know has experienced their hair changing to a dingy-green shade after spending a lot of time in the pool. While it can happen to those who spend a lot of time swimming, it’s copper in mineral-based algaecides is the true cause of green hair, not the chlorine that causes the color change

While many people believe that they must wait to swim after eating because of health hazards, there’s no proof that it is any risk. While you may want to skip the cannon ball after a big meal, some very light swimming should be no problem.

No matter how clean a pool may look, it’s never ever a good idea to drink the pool water. There are many chemicals and microorganisms present in pool water that can make someone sick.

It can be a hard to tell swimming pool fact from fiction thanks to the vast amount of myths out there. Now that you know the truth behind some of the most common swimming pool myths, you will be able to enjoy your pool more!
