At the beginning of the season (around May) I bought 2 cases of chlorine and only used 1 so I have four gallons left from then to use to close my pool. Question I have is, does chlorine degrade over that amount of time? If so, does it just get weak, or does something else happen? If it just gets weak, I’m assuming that if I get the reading I want (say 15ppm), even if it takes all four gallons (which it shouldn’t if they were fresh), I would be good to go. But if it degrades in other ways, maybe I shouldn’t use it for closing (since I’m relying on it for months to keep the pool clean).
Basically - Use old chlorine to close? Yes or no?
Thanks.
