They are designed primarily as a short-term solution but can also serve as a long-term solution in specific circumstances — particularly when the sump's tank configuration does not allow for proper aeration, or when the coolant batch is relatively old.
-
Yes — even with a consistent preventative maintenance program, some sumps can still develop odors, especially after the coolant sits over a weekend. These tablets are formulated to address exactly those situations.

When coolant sits idle, pH imbalances can develop that promote odor-causing conditions. The tablets rebalance the coolant's pH to safely reduce those foul smells that tend to build up during periods of inactivity.
-
Each purchase includes 8 tubes. Whether that covers one or multiple sumps will depend on your application and how frequently treatments are needed — dosing specifics are not detailed in the available product information, so confirming usage rates with the manufacturer is recommended.
