When the sun is shining and the heat is already strong by the time you wake up in the morning, you know it’s going to be a really warm one. But if you have a pool, you can jump in that morning to swim some laps for exercise, play some pool basketball in the afternoon, and then lounge in a pool lounger in the evening as the sun is going down. Any way to beat the heat that involves a pool is a good way to spend your day. You want to see your pool water looking crystal clear and clean more often than not, as most people don’t really want to swim in a swamp-like green pool. You need to use chlorine to keep that water swimmable, but having to keep jugs of liquid chlorine around may not be the easiest thing for storage reasons. If you use chlorine tablets, you’re going to need a way to dispense them and a chlorine floater is the perfect way. You just pop some tablets in it and let it float to spread the chlorine throughout the pool. We’ve taken a look at some of the best floaters to get you in the pool at all hours to get the most out of the good weather.
