- chemical formula LiClO - is a sanitizing chemical supplied as a free-flowing, dust-free powder or as granules providing around 35-38% available Chlorine
- Lithium Hypochlorite dissolves instantly rapidly in water - usually in under 60 seconds
- It is the most expensive of available sanitizers but has a few advantages over its more expensive rivals
- As Lithium Hypochlorite is calcium-free it causes no increase in pH, Calcium Hardness or TA and has no effect on CYA
- It has a long shelf-life, is non-flammable and very quick to dissolve (without clouding the water and without clogging a feeder)
- It can be used directly fiberglass or vinyl-liner pools without damage to the gel-coat or tha liner
- It can be used for routine sanitation and for Superchlorination
- Lithium Hypochlorite dissolves too rapidly to be used in a dry-chlorine feeder
- It must be pre-dissolved and dispensed in a liquid feeder
- One Kilogram (Kg) of Lithium Hypochlorite provides about 350g of available Chlorine
- 50Kg produces 16.5Kg of available Chlorine
- Cyanuric Acid must be added separately if Lithium Hypochlorite is used as the principal sanitizer - to protect the Chlorine from UV light
