  • ‘Poolmageddon’ – A Major Chlorine Shortage Is Set to Spoil Summertime Fun in the Swimming Pool

    The chlorine shortage is widespread and it will likely worsen — driving chlorine prices even higher — as homeowners start to prep swimming pools for the season. CNBC spoke to pool industry insiders in multiple states — including Florida, Michigan, Nevada and Texas — about the tight supplies, which are expected to blindside pool owners, who are largely unaware of the problem.

    A combination of factors has led to the scarcity, including an unprecedented surge in demand last year and a chemical plant fire, which destroyed some manufacturing capacity.

    “We started buying early, way early, and stockpiled as much as we could,” said Allan Curtis. “We won’t last more than probably mid-May, or late May, and we’ll be out of chlorine.”

    In this week’s episode, we go cold water swimming. Coldwater swimming has become a weekly routine for both Karam and I throughout the winter. We’ve fallen in love with the amazing ice dipping community as well as the feeling of complete bliss afterward. These freezing Sunday mornings have increased our productivity, tolerance to the cold, and our willingness to seek discomfort.
