Chemical Feeding and Control

The water used to prepare the solution should be potable and free of residual chlorine or other oxidizing agents. The cleaning solution is prepared by adding 12–13 lbs. of AWC UF-425 for every 100 gallons of water (1.5 wt% Solution). The cleaning solution is then circulated throughout the system.
