OK, I'm math impaired, so don't confuse me . . . I think it goes something
like this: you use X grams (or ounces) for each mg/liter of ammonia. My
test kits read ppm, not mg/liter. So, if my incoming water has 1 ppm
ammonia in it (chloramines in the water supply), do I treat the ppm as
mg/liter and add the ChlorAm-X accordingly?

FYG, the patent on AmQuel has expired, so the "recipe" is open . . .
ChlorAm-X is Amquel's formula, but about half the cost. Unfortunately, their
doseage info needs some work . . . it's a good thing you can't overdose the
stuff!

Lee, you are in luck, having some minor water quality issues I had to check
with my fellow KHA on dosing w/AmQuel. 1 Tablespoon treats 125 gallons for
1ppm ammonia.

Thanks for the info on the patent expiration, will really help all of us to
have this product on hand in case of emergencies and pH crashes.

Where did you purchase it from? ~ jan
