    pH down and testing

    Thanks.. I will switch back to MA then. I read a thread earlier that mentioned you should never test pH after aeration as that causes higher readings. Yes, I am trying to lower TA and pH. My fill water always causes the pH to spike when I add water which is generally a few inches each week. pH...

    pH down and testing

    I have used it.. it is just a pain to use and harmful for obvious reasons. Plus I hear it is not good for fiberglass so I do not want to risk it.

    pH down and testing

    Hi all, I am a constant battle with my pH and TA :) I am using Leisure Time Spa Down and not MA. I understand I should be testing before I aerate as they naturally increase pH. The problem is, I need to run the pumps to mix the dry acid. How long do I wait before retesting each time? Thanks!

    Some Jets Weak

    I have a 2003 Marquis Euphoria. See video below. IMG 3944 - YouTube You can see on low and high speed I seem to get more pressure and jet action on one side of the tub. Especially with the high speed pump. Is this normal? We had the high speed pump replaced few months ago.. maybe there is...

    Yeah.. breaker is good. Going to try to replace the two larger fusetron fuses.. the smaller clear ones look fine. If that does not work will have to place a service call :(

    Lost water and no power

    Ok.. I would think I would still at least have power to the panel even with the sensor tripped right?

    Lost water and no power

    I did as I topped it off this AM! Didn't even think of that!!! LOL So you think it siphoned so low something tripped on the board?

    Lost water and no power

    Weird right... I normally use a small submersible pump to drain it.

    Lost water and no power

    Hey all, so this AM hot tub was fine.. left and came home after about 4 hours and noticed 2/3 of the water gone and no power. What is perplexing is the water loss. Makes no sense to me. Tub is on an elevated deck and there is no sign for water loss underneath it. Even took of the panels and...

    Just got the K-2006.. FC test

    Ok thanks.. I did see the pH drop to 7.5 after adding some MA.. I will continue with the MA until I get the TA under 80. Will also get some CYA in there :)

    Just got the K-2006.. FC test

    So I picked up some MA and added 1/3 cup to start.. also, I have added 7 capfuls of the Leisure Spa Down and the pH doesnt seem to have come down at all.. odd.
