For swimming pools one big (3 inch) tablet treats about 8000 gallons
Using regular chlorine bleach (5% solution) at a rate of 6.5 ounces of bleach per 1000 gallons of water gives a chlorination level of 2ppm per 1000 gallons. To get the rate for 2500 gallons, multiply 6.5 by 2 to get 13 ounces for 2000 gallons, then divide 6.5 by 2 to get 3.25 ounces (the amount of bleach needed to treat 500 gallons) and add that to the 13 ounces to get a total of 16.25 ounces of chlorine bleach per 2500 gallons of waterat a level of 2ppm.For a swimming pool, you would likely want a 3ppm chlorine to water ratio (24.375 ounces bleach per 2500 gallons water).
Salt chlorine generators use about 500kw. Tablet in-line feeders use none. They're just plumbed so the water passes through them during normal circulation.
1.2 gallons
Use one gallon of chlorine for every 10,000 gallons of water.
615,142 gallons of water are needed to fill this cylinder.
chlorine
You have to add more chlorine.
2 1in Tablets in a feeder.
Use one gallon of chlorine for every 10,000 gallons of water.
errr 5 gallons in 1 million gallons = 5 parts per million
I think it has to do with the hardness of the water, (presence of calcium, magnesium, etc. that get oxidized by the chlorine and make the water yellow). Looking for a solution myself as I have well water.
