A couple years ago I found the information from Waterbear about bromine and used it for a new to us hot tub. Never having been the owner of a hot tub in the past, I didn't know what to expect. I didn't like the smell that lingered on my skin and hair after a shower, even though folks were saying that it didn't smell as much as chlorine. The bromine levels were all over the place. Fast forward to now and I'm getting ready to start up another new to us hot tub. The tub has been cleaned and decontaminated. I'm trying to decide between chlorine and bromine. I have most of what I need for bromine including the Taylor test kit but it sounds like chlorine might be easier and won't let people know where I spent time the evening before. The tub is plumbed for an ozonator but after reading the forums, it seems that it shouldn't be used with chlorine. I'm on the fence and need help deciding. Thanks in advance! Darlene
