Using the wrong peroxide can cause issues with efficacy in the case of stabilized peroxide. In the case of food grade peroxide handling and storage become challenging and its sensitivity can cause the dosing pump to lose prime (due to high levels of off- gassing). Use only industrial or technical grade hydrogen peroxide. Do NOT use stabilized, inhibited or food grade hydrogen peroxide.

Summary
The RainBox TM RainBot memorandum recommends using industrial technical grade hydrogen peroxide for water treatment systems due to its stabilizers that enhance efficacy and shelf life. It advises against using food grade hydrogen peroxide because of its instability and potential off-gassing issues.
