Hopefully this is the right place on the forum to post this….
Not pool related, but hoping to get this figured out.
I use a diaphragm air pump to transfer straight pool chlorine from point A to B. After I’m done using the pump I flush it out with approximately 10 gallons of fresh water. Obviously there is still some chlorine residue inside the pump. How much, I have no idea as I can’t test it. I would like to neutralize any remnants of chlorine within the pump for in hope the internals would last longer for me.
I emailed Cisco about their Sodium Thiosulfate. Their response was
“Generally, it takes about 7 parts of sodium thiosulfate to neutralize 1 part of sodium hypochlorite. In other words, you'll probably end up using 7 g of sodium thiosulfate for every gram of chlorine. Test with a test strip or kit to confirm.”
Is anyone capable of breaking this down Barney style?
