Just curious. :shock: I know about the formula that calc's usage vs when to drain and re-fill but what actually happens to water quality if you don't fresh-fill your hot tub accordingly? If pools can go all season why not hot tubs - if balance and key numbers are maintained? Barry

As I understand it from this forum, MPS is not really effective in lowering cc once it's there as using Chlorine to reach a break point to effectively reduce the chloramine. recommended usages then: Use on a regular basis as a preventor. Use with indoor spas to reduce chlorine smell. But how...

Quick question. I have to add ~ 4% of reclaim every other week due to evap. Can I expect the CYA level to drop accordingly? How about salt and calcium content? Barry

Are the calcium and salt ppm's reduced when bringing water level back up due to evaporation? Barry

Switched after finding this site. No complaints but have a question relating to getting the CC in line. Dichlor obviously is effective to stabilize when shocking but it adds to CYA which everyone here says is not good (once above 50). So I refilled 80% - 90% of a 365 gal capacity hot tub and...

Taylor's requires 2 drops pf R-0007 before adding R-0008. Just wondering why and if one didn't add it, what would be the result? Does it help isolate the base factor better (truer reading) by canceling out other factors that make up Total Alkalinity? Thanks, Barry

I cannot find the thread where "Waterbear" I believe introduced this product to his spa. Have have PH drift and understand this is a buffer. Understand as well it is PH neutral. Questions that I have: Do borates affect Calcilum Hardness and about how much? Current hardness is 450 until I...
