Hi everyone.
Over time we found that my wife's skin is susceptible to drying/itching if I stick to "target" values suggested by TFP as we soak.
My tub has 30ppm of CYA so:
- miniumum is 2ppm FC
- target: 4-6
She is much better if we start the soak at 2-3 ppm (rather than 4-6 target), even if this means going close to zero after 1h. If we stay longer than 1h I will add extra 2ppm of bleach. To compensate this low FC - I add more chlorine after getting out (to around 10ppm), and we don't use the tub the following day (1 day of use, 1 day off). Before next soak I make sure that CC is low (0.5 or less) and FC not above 3. If FC is too high I run UV lamp for few hours.
This seems to work OK - but below TFC target, is it safe?
I wonder what are your thoughts or personal experiences.
Kind reagrds!
