Pool Safety - Disposing Chemicals
Disposing of Unneeded Chemicals
Sometimes chemicals are purchased for a pool and never used. It is not smart to have chemicals that are not being used stored at your house. They can be a health hazard and can also be bad for the environment. What should be done with these? The City of Denton Solid Waste Department has worked really hard to protect the environment and has helped compile the following methods of properly disposing of old or unneeded pool chemicals.
- Use them in your pool - Although you might have to purchase another chemical to counteract the effect of the old chemical, it is still a very effective way to rid yourself of the old or unneeded chemical.
- Give the old or unneeded chemical to another pool owner - Water from one pool to another varies, as does the chemicals required to balance the pool water. You might have a friend or neighbor that could use the product in their pool.
- Bring the old or unneeded chemical to Gohlke Pools - Most of the time we will take your pool chemicals if the container is still in good shape. Sometimes we can use the chemical or, if not, we will properly dispose of the chemical.
Again, pool chemicals are necessary to keep a pool safe, but we must respect the fact that they can be dangerous if not handled properly or disposed of properly.
