swimspa

Thanks for that. makes total sense! Yes it is exposed to sunlight, most weekends it is for 6 hrs as the kids are in and out. We will go to a pool shop tomorrow and get the testing kit and liquid chlorine etc. Would you suggest to use the liquid Chlorine in the Hot Spa end which is at body temperature or different? That Bleach is not available here. however there is a peroxide sanitizer (150g/L Hydrogen Peroxide) I came accross while doing some research from "Poppits" would that be an option? Thanks Again

Hi There, I have 2 months ago purchased a 2 zone swim spa that has the ozone as part of the filtration system. It was recommended to me to use a Lithium sanitizer and spa shock combination to keep it sparkling. After just 3 days we have gotten cloudy water, so after adding more lithium and talking to spa shop and chemical co. It turns out we are supposed to use this lithium at a rate of 120g/day plus shock it when in use. and thats just for the swim end! the swim end is about 5300lt and we keep it at around 27-29degC. The spa is about 1300lt and runs at about 37degC We use it about 4 times a week and it will be costing about $50aus/week to maintain. Does this sound excessive or was I just fooled by the Spa salesman who told me it was easy and cheap to maintain. I feel like I am going crazy and the more i read the worse the confusion gets. Can someone please give me a safe and easy routine to maintain my beautiful Swim Spa. Thankyou
