Has anyone ever mixed Copper Sulfate in their Mix?  I use this in my pond for Algae control.  It's kind of expensive but may be a better way to help clean roofs.  Any thought/comments.

No New Posts Just how old is SH at your supplier?
 
(Preview)
Besides  the SH tester kit that can only test up to 10%.  Is there any other special tricks of the trade you guys know of to  find out if you are getting fresh or old SH?  I went to my local pool place and they said it was a week old and only available in 1 gallon jugs.

No New Posts Filtered or not filtered SH?
 
(Preview)
Any insight on if your supplier uses filtered or non-filtered SH? In using non-filtered it decomposes more rapidly than filtered. In searching the net for anything and every thing about SH I found a company called Powell Products. They have a wealth of information and also a tool to measure the decom...
