I have been using a 16 oz. Ozarka water bottle for about 4 months now, it has yet to eat the bottle up. So I have no idea if a plastic measuring cup is made of a different plastic than a water bottle.

I started using a plastic measuring cup from one of those "Dollar" stores and it started to degrade the plastic after repeated use. Just my experience guys with the plastic one i used didn't mean to ruffle your feathers.

I just think there has to be something different in the plastics for a 16 oz. water bottle to hold up as well as it has for me.

I got a couple bottles from the parts dep the last time I was in for an oval. I believe the mix was 4oz/ tank. Dont remember exactly the name . . .? I assume it meets the standards if they sell it.

The additive itself comes in a plastic bottle.....I add Power Service and the 100 oz. bottle is to treat 300 gallons so I usually add 1/3 oz./gallon. Usually I add about 27-30 gallon per fill up so I add 9-10 oz. I will add about 15oz if it is supposed to be colder and will add 20 oz if it drops below 10 for a time.
