Welcome to the board Todgeist. I'm relatively new here myself and yes I know your post is two months old but I had to focus on my pool first. Now that it is squared away I am looking to the hot tub. Anyways, I wanted to tell you I sometimes experience the exact same issues. For me I think its...

Well, it appears I will be unable to perform this test immediately. I have OTO test and have been taking my water to the store to confirm results. So a good kit now needs to be at the top of my list.
