I work with chemicals such as Muratic Acid and Chlorine. The chlorine is fine but the acid singes my nose and lungs. Will this be good enough?

I don't think so. I've found this isn't even much use with chlorine, myself. These filters are really only for household level use even though they are used by professionals. 3M also has an 8577 model (NIOSH P95 rating) that might provide better protection against certain chemicals.

No, I believe there are cartridges or filters you can purchase separately for attachment to this mask that would be suitable for working with such chemicals.

You don't like you think you would but you skin will get flakes and it falls of little by little.... don't peel it yourself because you can leave bad scars... its my first time also with an acid so I am waiting for more and more but today....on my nose and cheeks got flakey...so I think that's a good sign...its like my sixth day also....hope I helped..

Only need to use chlorine tablets in floating basket. No other chemical are needed beyond the initial shock and occasional muratic acid.

Since you only use a small amount it should be ok. Maybe test a small area first to see if you react. Make sure not to get it in your eyes though.

Depending on the item, I think it could. I agree, acid might mess up the metal but other foods may be just fine.

As long as the acid did not damage the contacts or the components within the unit it should work.

Yes, they should be fine. All of the ones I've used are regular black ones and they clean the air well. The baking soda is for a different reason--odor prevention (baking soda is great for neutralizing odors).

I had been putting a few drops in my cool mist humidifier but read that it would cause the plastic to leach chemicals into the water. I made the mistake of putting a few drops of thieves on a Styrofoam plate and it ate holes it in! Soo, I would be hesitant to use it in my humidifier now. I put a few drops in some water and boil on the stove to diffuse since we do not have a diffuser. It kills germs in the air and you can turn heat off and breathe in vapors to ease headache, sinus congestion, and prevent illness. I have done this several times when I felt like a cold or sore throat was coming on.

Hi, I would suggest you look at the mfg's web site for their tech. explanation. My experience has been that I still use some chlorine shock material periodically and , a small amount of a non chlorine sanitizer each day. I also use a natural blue additive from time to time. When I use the chlorine shock, there is a very noticeable chemical smell. The NII cartridge seems to reduce the frequency of need for the chlorine shock. This means that our spa experience (used just about every day) is enhanced. So the technology seems to work , but it does not , in our experience , eliminate the need for some chlorine and of course other chemicals for various other reasons Hope that helps, Paul Hi, I would suggest you look at the mfg's web site for their tech. explanation.

I'm sure they do, but I've used some solutions that were over 4 years old and had no problems: I did not get sick and I still could easily smell that chlorine odor after mixing the drops and adding it to my platypus bag. I would recc storing it out of the sun and in a cool location.

My previous response was based on taste. I trust that the filtration process will remove the chlorine and other harmful contaminates.

Yes you should add cyanuric acid. Otherwise your chlorine will be depleted. But your salt & cyanuric acid do not evaporate so once you get the levels right, they should be maintenance free.

I won't say yes since i read some other customers said it irritated their skins. Personally I am allergic to Chlorine and other strong cleansers and i don't have any problem when i am using this soap. so i guess you can try ~

Not so sure about water but absolutely sure about chemicals. I use far less chlorine and acid.

I have not noticed a change with my breath. I am sure that the chlorophyll could help. I notice how great I feel after using this product.

Don't see why not. Chemical company's use nitrogen everyday to unload tankers and rail car. It's safer then air for solvents. But to much nitrogen can sufucate you. Hope that helps.

Chlorine is a greenish yellow gas which combines with nearly all elements. Chlorine is a respiratory irritant. The gas irritates the mucous membranes and the liquid burns the skin. As little as 3.5 ppm can be detected as an odor, and 1000 ppm is likely to be fatal after a few deep breaths. I suggest you purchase the P100 instead for a little better protection.
