if you sniff a jug of chlorine, sure you’ll smell it but diluted in a pool to 3-5ppm you shouldn’t be able to smell it unless it’s reacting with contaminants, not necessarily urine, but not not necessarily urine. If it has a strong odor from far away either the pool has way more than say 10 ppm chlorine or is reacting with stuff or both. The good news is the chlorine is doing its job and you’re probably fine. probably.

This is not at all a reliable indicator of pool urine content. Do public pools contain urine? Yep. Does a smellier pool mean more urine? Nope.
Thanks for reiterating what I said I guess…
Just keeping the cycle alive hommie. You reiterated what I said. Ie. That is a complete bullshit myth.
Well, you have all the information in the world at your fingertips but here:

I guess that myth is pretty easy to explain.
