CLOROX TABS

[jeremycrook]

I have used these in the past for the winter months. How much copper is released from these tabs per tab? Trying to calculate how much copper I may added to my pool. I am assuming the copper only gets out of the water from splashing out or pumping out? If I added lets say 5 tabs to a 10,000 gallon pool what is my copper PPM?

We don’t know and small amounts of copper are difficult to measure. All we can tell you is never add copper to your water since it does not take much to cause problems and you only get it out by draining the water.

OK. I read those tabs add copper, thus I don't want to use them any longer during the winter months. I just turned my SWCG back on and didn't know if I may be susceptible of any staining due to the copper I may have added from a few tabs I added during the winter months.

What is the water temperature?? The SWCG will not work in cold water.

My water is >70 now. It should likely be upwards of 80+ by the end of the day as I heated it up for the soon to be season opener!
