A friend gave me a pile of pool and spa chemicals. Amongst the collection was 3 unlabeled 3" white pucks in clear plastic wrap. They were not sure what they are.
I suspect it is chlorine, and they look exactly like the trichlor pucks that I have, however those have a distinct smell to them which these do not seem to have.
I added one to a pail of fresh water and tested it after a while using a test strip. It showed free chlorine or bromine present.
My concern is that in with the pile of chemicals is also a container of bromine spa tabs. Is there any way to know for sure if the pucks are chlorine and not bromine?
