It says to wait 24 hours after using a water conditioner to use TSS. I'm going out and wanted to add it sooner, 20 hours. Is that OK?

I can see the reason for the long wait. If you're using tap water, there's going to be chlorine. Your charcoal filter will eventually adsorb all the chlorine out of the water, but not right away. The wait is so the Chlorine is completely gone out of the main tank and doesn't kill any of the SafeStart bacteria. The longer you wait, the less Chlorine.

I believe it says that to give the conditioner a chance to get rid of the chlorine before introducing the bacteria colonies in safe start. Otherwise the chlorine would render it useless. 20 hours should be plenty of time I would imagine.

Actually, the "mnfctr" does not recommend faster changes than are necessary. Try calling them or emailing them. I have a 1-person household, so I called them about this very issue.As someone else here said (and confirmed by Culligan Technical Support when I asked) bacteria will grow in a warm moist environment, so 4 months is an outside limit ... for your own safety.

You should wait 24 hours before adding the safe start if your using prime to condition the water.Add the fish right after the safe start.

Generally. With water conditioners it's rather difficult to "overdose" on them. It's still advised you try to estimate an appropriate amount though.

Yes, you should purge. But we never did for that long. About 5 to 6 hours, unless the water isn't tasting right. 24 hours is too long in our opinion.

Yes, do not mix with any other coolant and do not add water. Change interval from factory is 11 years. Just top off when needed.

BACTERIA may not be completely purged as I understand the Process. Store plenty of H2O in the Frig. B4 U purge the next time. I know 24 hrs. seems excessive but avoid possible infection.

The longer it's in your water the safer it is. 30 minutes is the recommended time and on the bottle there should be a peel hear label where you can find more information. I would also suggest using them up in a weak because the Iodine tablets will start to decompose after opening.

I saw some info that talks about the new HE washers and the lack of water in them during the wash cycle. One said to dissolve the SunGuard first and put it in the washer. Another said as long as you dissolve it in very warm water, you can then soak your clothes in a tub for at least 15 minutes and it will still work. I have been using this product for about 6 weeks now, I had a skin cancer removed( they got all of it). I don't wait the 20 washes. I treat my work clothes once a week just to be on the safe side. TO be on the safe side, contacting the manufacturer would be prudent.

I only ever use this product when I'm showering (after shampoo but before conditioner). The product is very runny (more liquid than most conditioners are) so i find it easier to just use in the shower. I personally wouldn't recommend using this overnight because it would be quite messy but also because I notice my scalp getting a bit itchy once I've left it in for the recommended 5 minutes.

It could be. The best way in my opinion would be to get a small spritzer bottle add a dollop of conditioner and some water. Shake and use up to 3 days. Remake it after a few days each time so the water doesn't go bad.

Hi. The directions on the box say to change it every 30 days for best results. I write the date 30 days from the date I placed the last one in my humidifier on the packaging of the next one, and so forth. :) They are exceedingly easy to use and work well for me. I also use a Honeywell filter and a Bacteriocide solution in mine to make sure nothing's growing. Change water completely daily as well, whether empty or not. We have a pool and it's really amazing what can grow in water over the winter time. Spring cleaning for that is in progress now as well. :)

I do NOT immediately, you should see improvement over time. As to your other question, I keep the solution in my mouth from 5 to 15 minutes other reviewers have claimed longer 30 minutes. I hope this but it really comes down to you and what you prefer!

Initially the filter was slow. Now it can filter the upper container in 12 hours. It was just the first time was slow. I would assume it needed to be saturated. I believe the instructions stated to soak the filter first before using.

I've always been told to wait 48 hours before shampooing after perm, which is what I did. It has been a great perm!

I added the formula to the existing water (make sure you have good circulation) and didn't do a water change until I had completed the treatment (it suggests this on the bottle as well). Just be very careful with scaless fish such as puffers b/c the treatment is pretty toxic for them.

I read one reviewer who let the mixture sit for about 20 minutes. I could never wait that long. My pipes must be cold at this time of year, so I run some hot water first to warm them up a bit. I am on maintenance now with no major back up. Good luck!
