## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many containers would i need for a 10x20x10 foot wtorage unit?**
A: All silica gel packets work in air-tight seal container. If they are open to air, they are constantly absorbing moisture in open air and become saturated right away. 
Please, keep them tight seal as much as possible. 
Information below lets you estimate how many grams of silica gel is needed at a given volume of your container. 
This is a general estimate when used in an air-tight sealed container. The amount of silica gel needed will depend on several factors: 
1. Chemical properties of the product that will be used: 
2. Volume of the container 
3. Conditions and physical properties of the container 
 
Container volume – packet size 
120 cubic inch - 1 gram 
240 cubic inch - 2 gram 
360 cubic inch - 3 gram 
600 cubic inch - 5 gram 
2 cubic feet - 30 gram 
4 cubic feet - 60 gram 
8 cubic feet - 120 gram 
64 cubic feet - 960 gram 

The storage unit volume is 2,000 cubic feet and this is too big for silica gel beads to cover.  
We would recommend using dehumidifier or storing items in a smaller container bins with appropriate amount of silica gel beads.

Silica gel beads are for an air-tight sealed environment. They continue to absorb moisture until they become fully saturated. They can bring the humidity level down to <10%.

Moisture absorber contains mineral salt named calcium chloride. These are ideal for small enclosed space like garage, basement, attic, closet, and etc..

Calcium chloride crystals absorb excess moisture in the air and brings the humidity level of about 50% which is an ideal and safe level. These crystals will slow down when the humidity level drops below 60% and will restart again when necessary. This is cost efficient, because the product will works when it's needed and not when it does not have to. 
However, calcium chloride is not reusable. 

Below are the ASINs for moisture abosrbers and hanging moisture absorbers.
B07JD85RM6 and B07K7YYVTV.  

Thank you.

**Q: anyone use tea bags to use the silica?**
A: Tea bags would work.  Many of our customers also use organza bags or women's hosiery, too.  Just a reminder, blue beads contain cobalt chloride. Our beads only contain 0.005% cobalt chloride.  Even though the amount is very minute, for safety, please, do not use for food or medication.  Thank you.

**Q: Can I use this to refill my Pure Wash cartridge?**
A: If Purewash cartridge uses blue silica gel beads, our beads will work.  If they don't work, please contact us.  We will issue full refund or send you a new replacement even beyond refund period.  Thank you.

**Q: can this be used in a 3 stage sharpe air dryer system?**
A: Yes, they will work for your air dryer system.
If they don't work, please contact us. We will issue full refund or send you a new replacement even beyond refund period.
Thank you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Effective moisture absorber with handy colour indicator
*by D***D on 7 June 2025*

I use these silica gel to help keep moisture away from my protein powders, as well as in my book cupboard and wardrobe. They seem to be working really well — I’ve already recharged them once, so they must be doing their job. The colour change indicator is a useful feature to show when the beads need recharging. Good value for the quantity provided.
