So I’m about to start building my roof cleaning kit with my new Fatboy pump but I’m wondering where to buy my SH since I’ll be using a lot more. The local pool supply store charges $39 for 3 Gall of 10% SH, but I can get 8% SH Kroger brand for $2.89 a gallon.
Should I just go raid the local store and raid their bleach supply every time I gotta do a roof?
Here are some before & after pics of me using the no name bleach on a house wash Roughly 60/40 mix of 8% SH on the pump sprayer with 4 oz of elemonator
Find a different pool place. in a pinch I get 5 gal 12.5 from my pool place for 14.99. 3 dollars a gallon is retail. Googel up a chem supply for your area.
Yeah, like greg said, try to find another pool supply.
Other than that, search for Brenntag or Univar and see if either has a plant near you. I get mine delivered from Brenntag… think the fuel surcharge is only like $25.
You can do roofs by buying bleach by the gallon, but man does it suck to have to load up 30 or 40 bottles and then dump them 1 by 1 into your tank.
I pick up bulk sh that is said to be 13% from my pool service company. They are less than 10 mins from my house. 3.00/gal though. There has to be a cheaper source. They have a huge tank in a warehouse that is kept dark and 72 degrees.
Are you buying from a pool cleaning company or from their supplier?
I purchase from a pool and plumbing supplier, Gorman, another company here (Florida) is Horner or HornerXpress
OK thanks I’ll be going through rocky mount in two weeks I may try them. I was trying to find me a supplier for 55gal drum…but nobody around here seems to have 12.5%. Only found one pool supply store that carried and it was $7.50 a gal told him he could keep it.
I bought about 20 1 gallon jugs for 4.50/gallon and said f that. That’s when I thought of my pool guy. First I tried to see if he could just hook me up with some. Lol. He said no so I called the owner of the company and struck a deal with him.
