dri z air calcium chloride????

I've worked on two RVs where DriZAir turned over and spilled. One in a sink, and it permanently damaged stainless steel. Other on a stove with stainless top (just slightly scarred) and galvanized inner cabinet, which lost its galvanize. I'm not a chemist but that "water" is very aggressive. Caustic, Acid, Basic... NASTY.

Yeah wotta hoot!

Purchased TEN POUNDS and put into a closet with my clothes. Jars all over the bottom of the closet. A week later I opened the door and found jars overflowing with water and slightly less damp clothes.

Agree, but disconnected storage solutions are necessary.

Dry-z will pull more moisture than the H2Out but needs more $$ to recharge.

If this is for whole RV dehumidification, you might consider another alternative. If for a small area such as refrigerator or closet, it may work for you.

Read how many ounces of water the various sizes will "capture". My home-type dehumidifier will remove those amounts in a matter of hours.

I am hearing good things about H2Out. You throw out nothing and regenerate in your oven or microwave. No crystals to by each year.

Calcium chloride in pools??? My pool pills are hypochlorite/sanitizer. I thought salt pools use sodium chloride. I can't say for sure cuz I never bought any. My pool WAS salt when we bought the place but the cell was shot so I tore all that stuff out and went to chlorine pills. I avoid anything with high calcium in my pool. I used to buy big bags of calcium chloride at hardware stores when I had a dump truck. It sure kept wet dirt from freezing in the box. Craig

Ain't this the same stuff that they use in pools ? And if that's true I could t it for like 10 times cheaper?

Perhaps, if the pool stuff is granulated (more surface area) so it actually works, and, you don't have to buy 100lb of it. And you're able to store the open bag so it doesn't come in contact with air.

I guess dri z air is just banking on people not knowing this and charging ten times what pool calcium chloride costs!

YEP...The Dri-Z-Air crystals are calcium chloride, which is a non-toxic inorganic salt product (CaC12)

Used on hwys, in pools, making cheese, in cement, in desiccants and in tractor tires for weight.
