You should not re-enter the pool until the chlorine level is 3ppm or less on your test strip, however long that takes. Chlorine is a known carcinogen and high chlorine levels are linked to many respiratory diseases.

How long wait chlorine in pool?

I'm not sure what you mean. If your qeustion is how long do you have to wait to swim after adding chlorine, it really depends. If you're adding chlorine to bring the level up to 2.0 or 3.0ppm, then wait minimum 1 hour before swimming, and be sure the filter is on. If you're shocking the pool and bringing the level up to 10-12ppm, you need to wait until the pool reaches a safe level as stated above.
