Thank you for your response, I do not have an ozonator although the spa did have one (pervious owner removed) I still don't quite understand the pros and cons of having one. I am sure there are many posts on that subject. so anyway what I normally do is get out of the tub dose and than close the cover pretty much right away NG right that is keeping the chlorine gas in ? and I will try opening 10 minuets or so before getting in easy enough, but at least I know its normal.

Hi I have a question I am using the bleach method with my new spa I have had great success for years with my above ground pool, but I do have a few questions regarding it use in my spa. I added CYA with first filling of the tub 450 gallons and have the level at about 30-40 ppm. I keep the chlorine at a daily level of 1-3 ppm and that's with adding about 2oz after each use, but I have been noticing that chlorine smell lately does this mean I need to shock and does shock mean to like 10ppm for 24 Hours like with a swimming pool? and would I want to shock it with regular bleach or one of the non chlorine types I am reading about? any info would be much appreciated
