Di-Chlor for spas and pools ?
« on: July 29, 2006, 11:38:52 pm »
Is there any difference in Di-Chlor for spas and for pools?
From reading the labels it seems to be the same chemical content. It seems the spa packaged ones are more expensive?? :-/
Thanks in advance for your help. ::)

there's no difference.  The only thing to look out for is the different % of active chlorine. 62% active chlorine will have less fillers in it than 52% - less fillers will not raise your TDS as fast - you use less to achieve the same PPM.

But if the price reflex that difference - water is the best chemical to replace

Agreed, it is the same. Generally the spa packages are smaller. EPA or other governing body mandates packaging for either use, pool or spa. We sell 25lb - 50lb. dichlor for pools, and yes, some buy the bulk for spa use. But that's a WHOLE LOT of chlorine to have hanging around, being use up very slowly. Lots of chance to get wet---EXCESSIVE FUMING, do not store near a classic car or motorcycle---sucks the chrome right off!!!
