Chlorinator cap exploded

I agree that you should not switch lids, but there is no color code for lids and chemicals.

What does a Black lid go to?

Rx Clear 3" Stabilized Chlorine Tablets - 50 lb Bucket, Swimming Pool

Yellow lids are used on soda ash, sodium bicarb, and DRY ACID.

I stand corrected - lid colors are not standardized across distributers and I apologize for speaking as though that's the case. My point on swapping lids being potentially dangerous still rings true. Also, since we're photo dumping the forum to make a point:

Dichlor

Trichlor

Cal-Hypo

Sodium Bicarb

Soda Ash

Dry Acid

CYA

Alum

@SumOfOneInteger You make a good point that perhaps by law they SHOULD be color coded, IMO.
