Is it safe to add 1-2 oz of 12.5% bleach with people in tub in middle of tub and jets on full?

If there are 3-4 people in a 400 gallon hot tub for an extended amount of time, is it safe to add 1-2 oz of 12.5% bleach in the middle of the tub with jets on OR would you recommend people get out briefly? I"m in MN so getting out for a bit can be challenging for some when it's cold. I was getting snowed on in my tub this morning.

Well, technically speaking it is "safe" to get 12.5% bleach on your skin. Soaking in it for long periods might be another story, but I've worn it many times over the years. I'm pretty sure I survived.

Whether you will enjoy the experience is another story... This might be what mps is good for.

No, it's still not good for anything...

What's the theory behind it? Your worried the bather load will over come the FC level? If that's the case dont sweat it, just dose appropriately when done. I've had many a night of tubbing amd didnt add til the morning stooper wore off. Water still clear and clean like usual

That's great to know! Yes, that was the theory behind the question.
