    Find Bulk Supply of 12.5% Cl(l) During CV-19 Pandemic or in Future Shortages

    Hello friends! If you have a Lowe’s store in your area, you may be able to order liquid Cl in bulk through their pro-services desk. I found that I’m lucky enough to live in close proximity to a manufacturer (Perk Chemical Co.) and can cut out the extra step/cost of ordering through Lowe’s...

    Does the brand of Liquid Chlorine 10% matters?

    Hi, I’m a new convert to using liquid chlorine. I just finished my first ever SLAM. I bought 3 cases of Liquid Chlorine 12.5% from my local pool store and the cost was $23 per case (or $5.75 per gallon). Within 4 days my pool consumed 10 gallons. I was doubting my decision of using Liquid...

    May I ask where everyone is buying their chlorine from? I know shelf life is important and making sure it is not old after reading threads. I am also wondering if more people just go for the bleach or the actual liquid chlorine? I am just starting to move myself to the TFP way of pool upkeep...

    Shelf life of liquid chlorine

    After a peaceful "trouble free" summer with my pool (thank you TFP!), I'm getting ready to close this week. In cleaning up my stock of pool supplies in the garage, I see that I have 6 gallons of liquid chlorine leftover from this summer. Any chance at all that they will still be viable next...

    Do I have to use Liquid Chlorine?

    I’m a 2week old 24ft round AG, 13,600gal, Cartdrige filter pool owner. I unfortunately trusted the pool store and had a Copper ionizer System and have abandoned that after realizing it is a scam and nobody but them understand it and I am reliant solely on them if I kept it. I also have stopped...
