Hi everyone!
I'm trying to switch from using chlorine purchased from the local pool store to bleach from the local supermarket.
I understand that I need to find 'Regular' bleach with no additives. I didn't think that would be a problem until I visited the local supermarket. I had no idea how many variations of bleach are available and I'm a little confused.
I have 2 products:
The first is Concentrated Clorox Regular Bleach.
The active ingredients listed are:
Sodium Hypochlorite: 8.25%
OTHER: 91.75%
The second is Great Value Easy Pour Bleach.
The label states that it contains Sodium Hypochlorite and contains NO Phosphorus
It doesn't list the percentage like the Clorox brand
What makes me nervous about this product is the label that states 'Low-Splash Formula'.
This leads me to believe that there might be additives that aren't necessary or good for use with a pool.
I'm also concerned with the 'OTHER' ingredients listed for the Clorox brand.
So my question is: Can I use either or both of these products or are they both not appropriate for use with a pool.
Any advice/links/product info is appreciated.
thanks!
