To empty or not to empty

Keep FC at SLAM level until your CC goes down to .5 or lower.

You don't need to test TA that often unless you add stuff that effects it.

Thanks, Joe. FC has been sitting steady for a week. Haven’t been in the spa.

Leave the cover off a while to help let the cc’s out.
In the sun if possible.
Also, clean your test cylinder with alcohol.
They can get dirty and show a false cc reading.

** if you do all the above & still have persistent cc’s its time to purge, drain, & refill.
I generally suggest a few rounds of slam and if that doesn’t clear everything up (including high cc’s) then purge & dump it. No sense in spending a week or more fighting with it.

Persistent cc’s are an indicator its time for the water to go.
We recommend purging & refilling every 3-6 months depending upon how much use the tub gets and how well it’s been managed. Some are able to go longer

Thanks for that. Kit was brand new.
