Thanks for the response and listening to me vent. I read many articles on what to be prepared for and I wasn't. I'll be sure to buy a cover with better foam insert protection. And I'm assuming you get what you pay for with covers.

I guess I was optimistic that I would not have any issues with my Dimension One hot tub for a few years (3 at least). Within a few months of purchasing a new tub and setting it up the lights failed. Had them replaced under warranty but water was leaking through the lights. These were also fixed...

I unzipped my hot tub cover and there is serious deteriation of the inside foam. There are no cuts or holes on the inside. How does this happen? The hot tub was bought and set up 5/22/2022. Is this common to need to replace this soon? I have a dimension one latitude.

They said it was the way they were installed in the factory. Also, after 1 year, all side panels and a few corners are warping.

A bit frustrated that some of my interior hot tub lights stopped working. Under warranty, the hot tub store came out and replaced all of them due to a known installation flaw. However, I lost much water as they are replaced from outside the shell. And the tub continues to leak water. The store...

You all are funny. I use the floating @ease frog with weekly nonchlorine shock and a bit of chlorine shock if I have more than just us 2 in the hut tub. I use the @ease frog system because I don't use the hot tub often and it helps keep levels of ph and chlorine ok. It is a very hard system to...

Are all Ahhsome products registered with the EPA?

I have very hard water even after a water softener. I fill my tub with both well and water from softener (1/2 and 1/2). I also use a filter on my hose. My last fill took over 2 weeks to get TA lowered. I used a dry chemical to lower TA which didn't budget the high number much. Once i started to...

Sounds like I need to continue with acid and be patient. Thank you!

"The spa frog mineral cartridge contains calcium carbonate which increases ph & ta & isn’t assisting in your endeavor. I suggest ditching the frog 🐸 & following this guide 👇" I use the @ ease frog as I still have much of the product and it helps when we only use the tub 1x week or leave for a...

Interesting about berates. Must be similar to what's in the product Spamarvel conditioner and treatment that the hot tub store wants me to buy.

Thank you for your input. I will go buy the muriatic acid. Spapure is 100% Sodium Bisulfate. I only used it as it came with my hot tub and I wanted to use up the chemical. And the hot tub store said 3 ounces would lower TA but it didn't. What does the borate do?

I purged with Ahhsome, drained and refilled my hot tub and after 1 week I still have not been able to lower TA. (FYI - I also use the floating frog) Using TF-100: Same readings from the 2nd day after new fill to today. Cl 0.5-1.0 TA 240 Ph over 8.2 The water is clear and clean looking with...
