In reading another thread, I suspect that I may be doing my chemistry incorrectly so I'd like to lay out what my scenario is and correct any mistakes. I'd like to get the Bromine scenario right before I explore alternatives.
OK, here we go
- have a 450g spa
- ozone generator
- floater (minimun setting)
with Brom-a-guard tablets (active ingredient: 1-bromo-3-chloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin)
- Shock....I have been using Oxy-Spa which is 42.8% potassium peroxymonosulfate. It says on the container that this product is 100% Monopersulfate compound.
So, I read in a post that I am supposed to establish the spa with Sodium Bromide.
I don't remember this part last year when i first got the spa. Should I be adding sodium bromide at a water change? If so....what product and what quantity?
Thanks much
