Keep in mind too that you are able to manually enter a number for your system. If you enter 0.037 into the 24 hour output field it should carry over into all the sections making it where you’re able to use that number.

I’m floored, but excited for them!!!

😂😂😂😂 I’ll be floored if it’s that quick. The people your friend is dealing with is very likely in WAY over their heads. They’re likely trying to do the best, but they’re out of their league. As soon as you used the word “fatality” it spelled doom for that hot tub as the legal issues that are...

I’ll kinda be shocked if it ever even gets released by the investigators to the dealer anytime soon……like this decade

The following article will give you the barebones basics on maintaining your spa, https://www.troublefreepool.com/blog/2020/01/18/spa-hot-tub-maintenance-a-basic-guide/ While this article dives into some deeper things, but is still a simple read 👍👍...

https://ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/ehp.trp110110 Here’s an interesting interview with the doctor who talks about the paper. Make your own call, but to me the NBC article seemed to contain a bit of “doom” compared to this discussion.

Thank you greatly for sharing the story! The first thing that jumps out to me is the year it was published, over ten years ago. This lead me to read the published article which has this as a closing conclusion, I’d be interested next in seeing if further research was ever funded/done.

Before we dive into the discussion, can we too read the articles or information you’re asking about?

Assuming the water looks good, follow the steps KimKats mentioned. Assume your pH is 8 Use PoolMath to see how much acid you’ll need to lower to 7.5. Add that Run the jets for a few minutes and then retest Do that a few times until your pH is in the 7’s. Don’t stress about this much, a high pH...

Ps…::.you are enjoying the hot tub correct? If not, why?

If it were I………. Go ahead and halt the use of Dichlor So you avoid it getting to high. Give it a week or so then retest to see where you’re at. Don’t worry at all for now about your TA. I say this as you were clearly overwhelmed at the start. TA is a parameter that’s easy to ignore. The main...

Now that we’re starting fresh, let’s go baby steps and maintain your water. 👍 First two questions…… 1. How did you treat the filter? 2. Keeping in mind we’re ignoring Calcium, Total alkalinity, and pH for now……do you have any questions on maintaining the hot tub?

Can you take a photo of the active ingredient for the granular chlorine?

And so you know what to somewhat expect…..enjoy some photos from when @jseyfert3 did his hot tub 🤮 https://www.troublefreepool.com/media/albums/ahh-some-purge.52/

Let’s start simple, have you seen the following article? Hopefully this was wrote in a more understanding way, and if not….we’ll keep working on simplifying things. https://www.troublefreepool.com/blog/2020/01/18/spa-hot-tub-maintenance-a-basic-guide/ Second off, a warning. When you get your...

A few bits here for you, Don’t worry about a SWCG. Some members opt for a SWCG instead of bleach to add chlorine. Using pucks also increases your CYA level. The more cya you have, the higher your chlorine level needs to be. At a point the cya level becomes too high to manage and users run...

Great info! I can easily see why you’re frustrated, but we’ll get you back on the right track. 👍👍 So let’s start by setting some expectations and lying out some open comments. For starters, spas aren’t like pools. Spa’s do take some extra effort and do require some different techniques. That...

I’d love to extend a hand and assist…… May I ask, what issues are you having that’s causing a drain/refill?

If you toss CalHypo directly into the water there won’t be an issue with the chemistry. The tab will cause a stain if it sits on the liner, but no boom. If however you insert a CalHypo tab into a feeder that’s had Trichlor in it, there is a chance for a boom. Even if there’s a very small amount...

Has this feeder EVER had a Trichlor tablet in it in the past?

I’m loving this! Amazing job!!

Let’s remember to keep this thread on track, we’re talking pools and Spa’s here. 😀No need to discuss the end of the world......

Ya know, let me see if I can maybe think out a side stepping attempt to get this to work. What if you try this....... Daily, click on the + icon on the bottom, and then select "Chemical Addition." From there select the SWG and THEN alter your 24 hour SWG Output. Also, go ahead and enter how...

Hello, and welcome to TFP! We are aware of this issue and it's currently in the books to be addressed. I suspect it's got something to do with the decimal point not being "hooked up" however I've yet to be able to really sit down with the developer of the App to hash things out. I'll drop him...

At this time bromine isn’t one we offer, however it’s been discussed in the past.

As somebody who spends their day at a full time job working outdoors I’ll add that this weather also causes all filters on your words to be removed and honest feelings to flow from your mouth. ?

Where I live at we have VERY high iron in the water and "topping off" the pool each Spring with water gets pricey as we must truck it in. One thing I always try to do is to dump any water from the cover into the pool before removing from the top of the pool. Other than getting slightly dirty...

Ive done some cleanup in this thread and have removed some "questionable" advice to the OP. I ask that if you wish to further discuss some of the topics and advice given in this thread you please start a new thread to discuss. To the OP.........two quick questions for you. How does your...
