THE EFFECTS OF CHLORINE EXPOSURE

Pools need constant upkeep and continuous treatment. Chlorine, the chemical added to eliminate impurities and prevent illnesses and outbreaks, is a necessity; however, improper use of this chemical can cause serious injuries and illnesses. If exposure is high enough, chlorine can cause chemical burns through either direct contact or chlorine gas vapors.

Severe and/or prolonged exposure to chlorine can cause:

Chlorine is highly corrosive and can cause significant damage to a person’s skin, as well. If you suspect that you were injured due to toxic exposure to chlorine or other chemicals used to treat a public or private swimming pool, you could be entitled to financial compensation.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF CHLORINE EXPOSURE?

In small doses, chlorine presents few risks to humans. However, high concentrations of chlorine can lead to numerous adverse effects.

Some of the most common symptoms of exposure to a dangerous concentration of chlorine include:

Public pool owners, managers, and pool personnel are expected to closely regulate chemical levels to prevent such leaks from occurring and should be held liable for their negligence. Unfortunately, pool chemical leaks are a common occurrence. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), pool chemical leaks lead to about 4,500 emergency department visits in the United States every year.

HOW DOES TOXIC CHLORINE EXPOSURE OCCUR?

Unfortunately, a significant portion of swimming pool accidents are caused by improper chemical treatment handling and upkeep. In other words, the most common cause of toxic or harmful chlorine exposure is human error/negligence.
