Chlorine tablets or granules for pools

Are chlorine granules or tablets easier to use in a swimming pool?

"We use granules when the pool is cloudy or going greenish to give a shock, because granules dissolves more quicker than tablets. We recommend chlorine tablets for day by day maintenance, they dissolves slowly. Please check regularly PH level. Happy to advise or help if need it."

"Chlorine granules are the best for a even spread and cheaper than tablets. However you do need to check your ph regularly"

"I recommend tablets, as they should require less frequent checking and help with longer term stability of pool chemistry. The delivery system is critical (how you add your chlorine?) to ensure safe, accurate levels that do the job whilst not causing any long term damage. My clients are provided with an easy to follow instruction card that facilitates the whole process. Happy to advise and help with any future needs."
