A Quick Hello From Newbie Spa Owners

[Kathy and Hugo]

Hello all, we just bought a spa, a Coast Spas Radiance Lounger model.

We just received it yesterday and proceeded to do the initial start up, and figured we might as well register on an online forum, as experience showed that this is often the best way to find easy solutions to some annoying problems.

Oh, we're from Québec City in the great white north, so bear with us if our english is not perfect at time.

So without further ado, a question.

Our spa will have a salt machine. The salt machine is not installed yet, as the model that comes with this spa just got updated but was not received by the salesman yet. Instead of having an obsolete model installed only to replace it a weel later, the salesman told the factory to wait and will send a tech to install it this week or something.

So in the meantime, he gave us some bromine to keep our spa water clean. I only want to make sure that I can safely put bromium in there without risk of this interfering with the impendeing istallation of the salt machine. No way I'm draining all the spa and filling it again anytime soon...

Thanks in advance, we look forward to exchanging with your community.

Hello from Ontario!

I have no idea how to answer your question because I am new to spas myself and am awaiting delivery in a little over a week. I ended up buying an Arctic Summit, but was very strongly considering the Coast lounger model. I found that not many people knew a lot about the Coast make when I was doing my research, so maybe that's why you haven't had any responses to your query. Anyway, good luck and I'd love to know how you like the lounger in it...the design was slightly different from other spas with a lounger..it looked much better to me and felt very comfortable sitting in it.

Good Luck!
