Water systems
What do you folks use to chlorinate your water system. I heard to use Clorox but that really stinks.

I also have always used a stronger concentration of bleach. Do you recall how long he recommended to leave the bleach in the system? I always let it sit for 4 hours, but it seems like more time might be beneficial for a lower concentration.
Just out of curiosity, what is sweetened water and why would you want to sweeten water?
Yes, he said that 4-8 hours was fine. He normally let his sit overnight. Also, if you're busy, leaving it in too long doesn't hurt anything. And if you can't wait the 4 hours, also, no big deal. The bleach does a great job in just a few minutes.
Sweetened water is what we use to call hard water that had been softened. Baking soda helps take that 'harshness' some water has away and makes it taste a bit like it's been softened. I don't recall all the details.
