    Add acid to get the Ph back in line.

    PW nailed it! It should take two minutes. Hell, most people rarely ever check that! Now if he put 2 or 3X the amount of chlorine, he'd have some really pissed of lady's with all-white bathing suits!

    There's chlorine netralizer as well. Professional pool supply houses and some retail fronts may carry it. Bleached bathing suits... bleached hair... not a good party!

    This isn't any worse than what should happen in a spa ... :D
    Oh yeah, acid will do.

    check the ph first than add acid to reduce - it takes some circulation before you will get a stable PH reading
