    Sundance 800 & 980 Owners Question

    Do you all run the air blower/aromatherapy after adding LC? I try to do this a couple of times after adding and running the jets. I've seen the air bubbles coming out of the air outlets when shut off. This changes the water in the air lines. AM I the only one doing this?
