Hi All,
Will it hurt to use liquid chlorine leftover from last year? I realize that it will have degraded, but at any point does it become something else completely and is unsafe? I was reading someone was saying it's mostly lye after a year?
If it is safe, can I assume 12.5% LQ purchased last Aug (and stored inside in an unheated basement all winter) is about half the strength or less then when it was bottled and add for say 6% level and test and go from there?
One other thing.. I had one old bottle that had just a few ounces left. I took it out of the tote I had it in and put it on the concrete basement floor a few days ago. Today I noticed some condensation on the bottle. Is that expected? Can I pour those remaining few ounces in my pool or is there some issue with it? Thoughts?
Thanks for any advice or help!
