i would be surprised if 4 gallons of chlorinated tap in a 220 gallon
would even be noticeable. thats only 2 percent of the water, and by
the next day that 4 gallons has dissipated the chlorine.



It's like a small amount of poison gas being released into your home every
day. One day's worth isn't enough to kill you, and it dissipates, but over
time it WILL make you sick and cause health problems. A bottle of ammo-chlor
is cheap, or, take the other poster's suggestion to let a large container
sit, at least overnight. That will at least take care of the chlorine.


Exactly!
