I have most of a bottle of a "brominating concentrate" from a major spa company. It is ~15% sodium bromide, 82% dicholr, and 3% "other" ingredients. I really just want to do a simple 2-step bromine process on my tub. Is there a place for this stuff in that type of regime?
I was thinking about just using it to establish my bromine bank on my next refil. I have a 350 gallon tub, which would normally require 1.75 oz. of pure sodium bromide to create a bank. Can I just add this at start up (1.75 oz / 0.15 = 11.66 oz) to establish my bromine bank? If so, should I add it over the course of a few days rather than all at once?
I realize that it would be easier to just make the bromine bank with pure sodium bromine, but I am just trying to figure out how to use the stuff that I have.
Thanks
