Alternating between Bleach and Liquid Chlorine

[Pamofferman]

I’ve been adding bleach as my sanitizer per the Pool Math app. Is there any issue if I wanted to switch to LC, and then maybe switch back depending on what I have available? Is it better to pick one and stick with it?

Same thing other than the concentration. Just make sure you have the correct % when you do the calculations.

Bleach and liquid chlorine are the same thing. Sodium hypochlorite of some percentage mixed with saltwater. Just use the correct percentage (usually 6-8.25% for bleach and 10-12.5% for LC) to make sure you are adding the right amount of sodium hypochlorite.

That’s great to hear. I want to try the LC because of the higher concentration, but bleach is much easier to obtain and keep in the house.

Thanks so so much for your replies!
