  1. Hello All, Purchased new Marquis Reward Hot Tub about 10 months ago. My tub is 350 gallon with dual pumps and filters and has the SpaFrog inline cartridge feature for mineral and bromine or chlorine. I use the grey chlorine with the blue mineral cartridge (not bromine). On initial setup I brought my home water sample to my dealer and they tested it and gave me a printout that they marked up with the chemical regiment to use. I don't have the actual measurements with me but I will swag at it for reference. I follow the amounts to maintain best effort against the Ease Test Strips and monthly sample check at the dealer. Anyway the weekly chemicals (all Spa Guard-the brand they distribute) I use per there direction is and in this order weekly: Enhanced Shock 1.5 TBS Chlorinating granules 1 TBS PH Increaser ~1-2 TSP as needed Calcium Hardness Increaser as needed Total Alkalinity as needed Stain Control 2 TBS Spa Enzyme 3 Oz. AquaFinesse 7 Oz. A different dealer at a recent home show asked me, "why are you putting all of those chemicals in if you have the Spa Frog inline with chlorine"? "You should only need the inline cartridges and monitor your PH, Alkalinity and Calcium. He also said he has never heard of anyone using chlorine AND the Aquafinesse salt solution. Ive never had a tub before and my dealer insists these are the chemicals i should be using. What should i be adding with the Chlorine Mineral in line SpaFrog? Why are they instructing me to use a Chlorine and the Aquafinesse together? Thanks FF
