Sodium Hypochlorite - Liquid Chlorine - 4L
In the swimming pool industry, one of the most popularly chosen forms for sanitizing and chlorinating water is sodium hypochlorite. Commonly known as “liquid chlorine” or bleach, sodium hypochlorite is widely used in both commercial and residential swimming pools.
Sodium hypochlorite effectively destroys bacteria and prevents algae in swimming pools. Sodium hypochlorite for swimming pools is usually manufactured at concentrations of 10% or 12.5%. One gallon of 12.5% sodium hypochlorite provides approximately 12.5 ppm of free chlorine per 10,000 gallons of pool water.
Sodium hypochlorite is a primary sanitizer because of its ability to kill microorganisms, oxidize nonliving contaminants like ammonia and swimmers’ waste and provide a protective residual in the water.
