Hi, I have a new Sundance Spa arriving next week. I'd like to use the least amount of "chemicals" as possible, but still maintain a safe water environment. The dealer I worked with to get the spa has sold me a bunch of bottles with chemicals I'm just figuring out if I want to use or not (most of it "Leisure Time" branded product). What I'm posting here is if anyone uses Spa Marvel, can you please share what your water care regime is. I have researched Spa Marvel and like the reduced amount of chlorine it suggests using. But being a novice in what is required to have a "safe" tub environment, I'm looking for how others maintain their tubs, using Spa Marvel..... and how to set up the spa from the beginning, with its first fill. Thanks. I appreciate the help.

Hi, First time posting here. I just purchased a Marin Sundance tub and waiting for delivery. I'm looking for an alternative to using chlorine or bromide and have been reading about Aquafinesse and Spa Marvel. I have a couple of questions. 1). Are Aquafinesse and Spa Marvel similar products and I'd be interested to hear your pros and cons about each 2). Do you still use chlorine when using these products, even if it's a small amount. How much chlorine does one add to the tub when using either of these products. Edited: I've been reading some posts on this site.... and maybe Spa Marvel / Aquafinesse are not the only choices. I'm just looking for a water care "system" that would get away from such high use of chlorine. Thanks very much for the help and sharing your thoughts.
