What Else We Can Do to Help You Sanitize
Valley Pool & Spa stores carry essential chemicals that can be used as alternatives to home sanitizers that may be in short supply. The CDC has recommended the use of household bleach to clean and disinfect surfaces to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. The CDC recommends the following procedure for making a bleach solution using household bleach:
- 5 tablespoons (1/3 cup) household bleach per gallon of water, or
- 4 teaspoons household bleach per quart of water

Valley Pool & Spa stores carry liquid pool chlorine, which is approximately two times stronger than household bleach. The bleach solution recommended by the CDC can be formulated by substituting the recommended amount of bleach with only half the amount of liquid chlorine.

CDC Statement Regarding Pools & Hot Tubs in regards to COVID-19
As your trusted partner in pool and spa care, we wanted to provide you with important safety information from the CDC. According to the CDC, there’s no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools and hot tubs. Proper operation, filtration, maintenance, and disinfection should remove or inactivate the virus that causes the Coronavirus.
