The warning label and instructions clearly state to add the chemical directly into the pool not to mix it into a separate container first. The warning labels also warned against mixing different chemicals together. Not only did they ignore these warning labels but they went to an enclosed area inside the home to mix the chemicals. Some people just aren't very smart.
You definitely got that right , Each individual chemical should be stored separately and away from each other because if those bags or other containers fracture , Those chemicals can come in contact with each other and cause a violent reaction and possibly a fire , Each individual chemical should be on its own shelf and away from other chemicals Same goes for storing pool chemicals in the garage or shed , Never store them next to each other because of the risk of those containers becoming fractured
I’m generally opposed to over regulating any industry but this happens often enough that labeling rules need to be changed. Labeling 4 different chemicals simply as “Shock” and putting them in nearly identical containers will inevitably lead to mishandling. The only difference in in the packaging is a hard to decipher chemical name that includes some variation of the word “chlorine”. The written instructions are in the tiniest of print and also nearly the same among the different products. At the very least I would suggest color coding of the package across all brands with clear instructions not to mix the different colors.
I mean if they bothered to read the labels on the packages this wouldn't have happened. They all say pretty clearly not to mix in a separate container but to add straight to the pool.
There should be a warning label that says "Warning: Mixing different manufacturers or types of shock treatment, or with other pool chemicals will cause an explosion which may result in property damage and/or serious personal injury" in all caps, large font size, and the ISO 7010-W002 explosive material warning symbol.
Nope, there are warning not to mix with different chemichals together. If you follow that you wont experience any explosions. A lot of chemichals can have the same effect if mix with the wrong chemichals. It would be dumb to write EXPLOSIVE on acetone, windex, or bleach just because there are the smallest chance of and explosion
The elites like to think that the poolman is insignificant and a dummy. For the most part, that is true, but when these penny pinchers blow themselves up......oh what a laugh it is.😊
I've never even thought of mixing those chemicals in my house, I always put them directly in the pool
Couple attempted to make meth, but blame pool chemicals when it all went horribly wrong 😂

The store having them next to either on the shelf isn't safe either

Better yet why were they mixing them in the kitchen sink 🤦♂️

They definitely flunked chemistry 😂

Cal hypo meet dichlor/trichlor lol
Read your directions people lol
i mixed cal hypo and triclor in a skimmer, that was an interesting experience
@@SpaceCowboy1627 I bet 🤣
i like men
@@karllmao2121 gay
@UCpxrgKxttB5WA36GtQk5MxA I’m in your walls
Thats why you hire a pool professional
Which ones did they mix, for research purposes, of course. ;)
Most likely cal hypo and tri chlor. I’m surprised they didn’t mention this so people don’t make the same mistake
They probly hadq tabs in there
Lol
