    Ahh!Some vs Ahhnatural

    The Aqua Clarity is not just diluted Ahh-Some. Keep the Ahh-Some gel for purges. It is dramatically more effective using a small dosage.

    Ahh!Some vs Ahhnatural

    Natural is one of our dealers. The product is legit. We stopped making the 2 ounce container and switched to a tube where the product stays fresher for a longer period as air is not introduced into the tube when the product is squeezed out. Plus, you get 2 additional ounces for a few dollars...

    Aqua clarity bubbling on first dosage...

    Next week add 1 ounce. There may have been some residual Ahh-Some in the lines after you did the purge(s). The foam will dissipate. Thereafter, you should probably add 1.5 ounces weekly and see how that works.

    Aqua clarity bubbling on first dosage...

    Based on what you say my first thought is that you added too much Aqua Clarity. Let’s go back to basics. Did you mix the small bottle of concentrated Aqua Clarity to 120 or so ounces of tap water in a plastic bottle? If so, you only need 1 ounce of the diluted AC for each 200-250 gallons of...

    Little brown-red type spores on hot tub jets

    Salt water generators have cause widespread corrosion to escutcheon plates, handrails and ladders in swimming pools. Newer built pools have special accessories now that do not oxidize or corrode from the salt systems. I do not think that the Saltron is causing the reddish spots on your jet...

    Little brown-red type spores on hot tub jets

    Looks like corrosion. Are the escutcheons with the spots stainless steel? What sanitizer are you using in the hot tub? Are you adding pH decrease On a regular basis?

    Concerns About Ahh-some Products, BACs, and Antibiotic Resistance in Hot Tub Maintenance

    It looks like your initial post regarding our Ahhsome/AquaClarity products was 10 years ago. Have you been using the products since then? What sanitizer are you using on a regular basis? Have you performed periodic purges and full drain downs? I believe I remember speaking with you way back. I...

    Aqua Clarity and what to do with filter

    If you have already purchased the Ahhsome Gel Purge go ahead and use that to purge the filled hot tub. Follow the instructions. It is easy to do. Typically, there is no need to refill and drain a second time after the initial purge unless you notice a heavy amount of brownish scum and foam...

    Spa chlorine usage and Ahhsome in pool

    Sure, ok to drain into pool. I do recommend another purge based on your chlorine loss. How much use before chlorine level slips to 1 ppm? If you are running at 6ppm (too high by the way), s/b @ 2-3 ppm, and it drops to 1 after a 2 person dip, you still have gunk in the plumbing. Before you...

    Cedar Tub - White Mold issues

    You may want to use Aqua Clarity or Hot Tub Serum weekly maintenance. These clarify and provide biocidal properties to the cedar surface to help eliminate biofilms. Safe for cedar tubs. Do additional investigation and read the reviews. Both of these products will greatly assist you.

    Aqua Clarity and what to do with filter

    I am not exactly sure of what you are asking. When adding the small amount of Aqua Clarity on a weekly basis you leave the filters in place. No need to remove them. Plus, using the AC regularly you can go considerably longer prior to purging as the small amount of AC added weekly will clean...

    Rapid decrease in CF and Cloudy with SWG and UV light (Sundance)

    Doug-Jack: When you did the Ahhsome purge what did the water look like? Did you see any discoloration or sticky brownish floating particles? Did you use the blue gel or the liquid?

    Rapid decrease in CF and Cloudy with SWG and UV light (Sundance)

    Not so Awesome?

    It is quite common for residual sticky brownish gunk to hang around a day or so after purging. As Joe Self says, wipe it away with a towel a few times. Depending on the gallon age and amount of use, hot tubs not using Aqua Clarity on a weekly basis should be purged every 3-6 months. With Aqua...

    Rough feeling on hot tub walls

    So, let me try to assist with what can happen with AquaClarity as well as using ozone. Aqua Clarity is constantly working to remove any particles that may be forming or clinging to any surface that comes in contact with the hot tub water. Providing a full and effective purge prior to using AC...

    Rough feeling on hot tub walls

    I am quite certain it is not biofilms. Is you tub acrylic or roto-molded? Just a question, why are you maintaining such a high chlorine residual? 3-6 ppm is more than what you need, especially with the AquaClarity. Unless the water temp is always 104degrees with the cover off and lots of...

    How do I clean a nasty soft tub liner -

    Ahhsome works on vinyl liners as well as any surface with a build up of bio-gunk. Let the Ahhsome soak into the clinging particulates and wipe the area prior to draining. When you refill and get the water balanced you are set to go.

    Good grief.. do I have algae/biofilm now??

    Swimmynoodle: My name is Jerry, the Ahhsomeguy. I was perplexed while looking at your posting regarding the ahh-some cleaner. I think I know what happened. I would bet that you purchased the bottle from Amazon. A while back we made changes to that particular label in question. We pulled...

    Good grief.. do I have algae/biofilm now??

    The bottle label is primarily geared towards jetted bathtub purging. The 16 ounce bottle provides for 8 jetted bath cleanings. Jetted bathtubs hold an average of 50 gallons. The 16 ounce bottle would be enough product to purge a typical hot tub twice. So, if 32 purges were performed with just...

    Good grief.. do I have algae/biofilm now??

    Joyful: This hot tub owner purged with the liquid and not the gel. The gel is 54.27% active and the liquid is around 3%. Ahhsome will not degrade o’rings.

    To empty or not to empty

    Lo-Chlor purchases our bio-cleaner called AquaClarity Gel. They dilute it and have products that will assist. They are in Australia. Hot Springs Spas in NSW carries our gel purge product. Both have inventory as I write this.

    Why the need to test FC above 10 ppm?

    Gentle Spa is Sodium Tetraborate Pentahydrate or very closely related to Borax. It is a water softener and aids slightly in pH drift. I have never used this product but it may be something for you to look into.
