I was just wondering what the best chemicals are to use in my hot tub. I'm using Baqua Spa right now and it works ok I'm just wondering if I should be using something else. That was the system the previous homeowner was using so I just continued using it. Just figured I would see if there is a better way.Thanks
I started with chorine. Then I used the Baqua system for a couple years. Now I use Nature2 and ozone. The Nature2 cartridge lasts 3 months and sits inside on of my filters and slowly releases silver ions to sanitize the water. The ozone is also working 24/7 to sanitize. The only thing I do with the spa is shock it once a week. Very low maintenance.
Just remember to drain and refill any spa only body of water , no matter what Chemical is used. It is very important to refresh the entire body of water depending on use. smaller bodies are harder to keep balenced. Just like in Nature. A pond can be self cleaning but a puddle scums up quickly
Note: alot of people complain of getting rash's and such because they keep filling water that evaporates and just adding chemicals.
I have been told by Homeowners that their water is crystal clear, but dont understand why their heater element failed or have pin hole leaks. After taking a water sample to the closest store to be checked , found out that you can clean jewlery in it, Seriously!! I have to respond sure its clear but so is acid.. nothing grows in that either.
Water evaporates, chemicals and other particals don't! as these build up problems arise that can effect skin and even health.
Commercial spa's are to be drained and filled on a daily basis because of this.. heath department demands it!
Just food for thought
