What is PPM and What does it mean?
   PPM is an abbreviation meaning "parts per million".  It is a form of measurement used for the amount of Chlorine found in Water. 

Do we need to measure the Chlorine?
     Yes, Chlorine is corrosive and poisonous to humans. 

So is it Safe to use Chlorine Tablets?
     Absolutely! Once the correct dosages are followed when sterilising water or food. 

What is a safe level of Chlorine in Water?
    In the October 1996 Drinking Water. Regulations and Health Advisories, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed a maximum contaminant level of 4 ppm for chlorine. Unfortunately, we were unable to get a recommended measurement from any Irish state body (Irish Water, HSE, County Councils). If anyone can advise we will happily publish here.

This is additional information. 

Chlorine tablets dissolve to release two important cleaning actives: 

1. Hypochlorous acid – a highly effective bactericide and virucide for rapid disinfection

2. Sodium hypochlorite – an effective bleaching agent for cleaning, stain removal and rapid disinfection 

Chlorine tablets release a higher level of hypochlorous acid than that obtained from using liquid bleach which makes them a source of highly effective disinfectant. Chlorine tablets have a better shelf life. It is well known that the hypochlorite content of all liquid bleach solutions drops naturally with time. However, the chlorine content of Chlorine tablets is much more stable giving them a longer shelf life.

Uses:

Chlorine tablets are suitable for use in laundry, toilet and general hard surface disinfection. 

Note: Chlorine tablets are not suitable for direct food contact applications.
