People install mixers that are too big. It’s like using a fire hose to fill a sippy cup. The turbulence releases chlorine gas into the air. You end up smelling like a swimming pool janitor. Gentle, consistent flow is the secret.

Another classic blunder: forgetting to clean the intake screen. A clogged mixer is just a paperweight. It sits there, mocking you. Meanwhile, your water tank develops a personality disorder—clear on one side, cloudy on the other.
A Tank Full of Surprises
Did you know that a tank without a mixer grows biofilm? It’s a slimy layer of bacteria that hugs the walls. Imagine a city of germs licking your water. Gross, right? A good mixer scours those walls like a power washer at a car wash.
Even the shape of your tank matters. Cylindrical tanks are easier to mix. Square ones have dead corners where evil drifts. You can buy specialty mixers that arch into those corners like a cat hunting a laser pointer.
