6. A GT-24 or GT-30 glasswasher can use either Iodine or Chlorine for sanitizer. Iodine is often used in hard water conditions, because it has a sheeting action the helps to prevent water spots. You cannot switch between these two dif- ferent chemicals for sanitizing without re-adjusting the chemical pumps, because they require different concentration levels.
