WaldenVancouver, welcome to the forum. Your new hot tub's inclear system is putting me in mind of HAL from Space Oddysey 2001
But I'm sure once its l sorted, it will be uber-convenient...
If "HAL" continues to strike because he fees the TDS is too high (and you don't decide to just disable him) there s a pre-filter for spas that might help reduce TDS if in fact your water is high. Not sure if you can get it in Canada, but here's the link so you have the information if you decide to try:
http://www.spadepot.com/shop/Pre-Fresh-Spa-Pool-Water-Fill-Filter-P784C57.aspx
I am on well water so I'm giving it a whirl...I used to use water from my softener system but my repair guy blamed it for an issue so I started bypassing the softener and my raw well water was wicked!
BTW, you didn't fill the tub from a system with a water softener, did you? If so, thats where the high TDS might have come from (if in fact HAL's assessment is true...
If you like the tub otherwise and if HAL doesn't get with the program, is it possible to disable him? Its quite easy for a human to just do a quick check and add what's needed, especially if like me, you use it every day
I hope you get to enjoy your new tub SOON.
Cheers!
