A good source for high-percentage, CHEAP calcium hypoclorite.

EPA instructions for preparing calcium hypoclorite solution for disinfecting water.

Note...calcium hypoclorite is very corrosive. Read up on the care and storage of this stuff...a sealed glass container might be the best. If the container is not leak-proof...the fumes will rust nearby metal objects.

Good price - and free shipping!

How do you store yours? cI had some in a plastic bucket before I moved. I never noticed any deterioration of the bucket.

Half gallon mason jars would work with plastic lids, I guess.
