Liquid Chlorine
Ph 7.8
CH over 100
Cya 0
I just added enough granulated dichlor to get FC to 6, but cya is still 0. Am I supposed to add stabilizer to raise the cya like I do in the pool? Or do I continue to add dichlor to raise the cya? If I continue to add dichlor, should I wait until until the fc drops and bring it back up to 6ppm? My plan is to switch to liquid chlorine once the cya reaches 30, as suggested by tfp.

Edit to add it’s a 7 seat South Seas Artesian spa. I don’t know if that matters to my question, but I can’t figure out how to add my hot tub info since I already added my pool info.
