    Just for the sake of arguement the water is at temp going in the aging tank 82°
    Fixed it ^^^^^
    I mistakenly put kilo instead of liter.
    I use 1 liter of purigen in my lifeguard fluidized bed filter

    Water temperature, barometric pressure, percent saturation, and oxygen concentration.
