Know this bleach date code?

[lhlsea]

Hi there, found some Classic Bleach (made by HASA) at my local Cash and Carry today here in Seattle. 6% for $1.50/gallon, seemed like a good deal.

However the only stamp I could find on it says "E1257". Do you know if that is the date code, how to read it if so, or where else to look if not?

Thanks! Sorry if this has been answered before - I searched around the forum for a bit (while I was standing in the store actually .

Haven't seen that one before. Here's their contact info - maybe give them a call and ask (report back here with the info please).

Hasa Inc.
P.O. Box 802736
Santa Clarita, CA 91355
Telephone
661.259.5848

The date on the box says 06/18/2017 - but it's difficult to determine if that's the date of manufacture, boxing or shipping.

Could maybe be the 125th day of 2017? If you could find some other numbers on other bottles that also ended in a seven perhaps that could help confirm it or prove that I have no idea what I'm talking about

Try it and see if it gets you where you want to be for FC. Not a horrible price if it works. Don't forget to make sure PoolMath says 6% if using it for figuring.

Back with the results in case they are helpful to anyone else. A very friendly guy from HASA called me today after I filled out their contact form last night.

jblizzle, you were right -- E1257 = 125th day of 2017.

So I guess I have a fairly fresh batch. $1.50 for a 6% gallon is the best I've been able to find around here thus far.

Thanks for the help!

That is a pretty good deal: Cost / fl. oz CL = $0.195

Thanks for updating us! That's a good deal.
