I think I’ve been doing this incorrectly.
We have been using MPS non chlorine shock when the bromine has been zero . But just enough to get the level to 1-2 ppm, so about a Tbsp.
If the bromine reading is in the appropriate range of 1-2, do I still need to shock weekly AND with the amount listed on the container? (2 Tbsp for our size tub).
That amount brings it up to 10+.
Maybe this is why we often have foamy or cloudy water.
Does anyone know about how long it takes the bromine level to come down before we can go back in? I know there’s not much you can do other than leave the jets on and leave it uncovered? I have seen not to go in if it’s over 5ppm but most often I’ve seen if >10.

Her situation (vacation rental) is tricky, so she could use all the advice she can get. I maintained a bunch in Tahoe for a couple years, which was a nightmare even for me. If anybody else out there has vacation rentals and could lend her some advice she could use it.
