Aging barrel aeration

[Del]

I have been without an air stone in my water aging barrel for 5 days. It has been heated all this time.

Will this water still be suitable for my water changes or do I have to start again?

It will be fine Del. The chlorine will have evaporated over that time, and the heater would have caused some water movement.

Thanks Merrilyn.

I am getting the air pump today and will wait till Sunday to do the water change.
