Hi Bryan;

Just say "no" on the low chlorine products. I'm sure there is an exception somewhere, but I can't think of one right now, and the general rule is, those products are bogus. By the way, "minerals" = "copper" and sometimes "copper + silver + zinc".

If you really want to dig in, we can point you to some LONG discussions of all the chemistry involved, but I'm not going to do it tonight. We've been HAMMERED today. We're close to our all-time peak traffic, and it's still May!

But, a little later (like: after July 4, when traffic begins to slack off) I can point you to enough reading material to last till October. But if you are in a hurry, use the search link in my sig to look for "chlorine free" and "mineral" and "ionizers" and "Nature 2".
