Hi All,
This used to not be an issue when chems came in plastic buckets with sealing lids, but more and more are now coming in plastic bags that don't necessarily reseal. I have a 6' x 8' pump room in the back corner of a garage, have always stored my chems there, except the salt which is in the main garage. My last 12-pack of shock came in 1# bags that tend to disintegrate and give off fumes over time causing massive corrosion in that small a room. I ended up moving the remaining shock outdoors in an old bucket that didn't seal as well as I thought, went to use it and it was all clotted together in a tacky mess. Not to mention the gallon plastic jug of "Liquid Fire" drain cleaner which has so much sulfuric acid it weighs 15.5#. It's just sitting inside my overhead door on the floor, waiting to burst and wreak havoc!
Just looking to see what others are doing...
