Testing Bleach Strength: 1.88ml in 5 gallons of Water

[mas985]

Using ratios:

1 / 10000 = x / 5

x = 5/10000 gallons, .064 ounces, 1.88 ml

You got it right.

Thanks Carl! I'll be trying this out to see how my chlorine is

can't wait...


I just found a new place to buy chlorine from. They fill the chlorine in a black 5.5gallon container. They mentioned that the have their chlorine tested often...and that it comes in at 17%, but they will never let it drop below 12%. So it wouldn't surprise me that yours is also above 12%.

I think I may test my chlorine every month...just to see what I'm dealing with and how fast(or slow) it does lose it's concentration.

take care,
