I used mine 4 times so it lated me a Year

Another Great reason to deal with a local Company. also what problems are you having with a little more infe we mite be able to help

you should drain and fill your hot tub every 3 months your TDS (total dissolved solids) levels should never go above 2000ppm it takes way more Chemicals to sanitize it properly, it is true any tub can go 6-7 months between draining but it's going to cost you way more money in chemicals.. Sundance is owned by Jacuzzi and in my opinion Sundance is a way better tub. hope this helps

make sure you use a primer to clean the area before you apply the glue to the hose and the joint...

Just so you know i'm a Hydropool Dealer In my opinion your best bet will be the sundance then the D1 sundance has always been one of the leaders in the industry... PS www.hydropoolhottubs.com

Rich made some great points if i could add a few things. First be careful when you use soft water you water does need some mineral and if there is not enough in the water it will start to eat your eater element.. In many places where my customers use wells we do a phosphate test and if we find large amounts of phosphate in the water we use a chemical call phos-free for 24hr then we clean the filter balance the water then add sanitizer. Hope this helps.

the Biggest mistake people make is adjust there PH way to much I have found if you adjust you Alkalinity you PH will follow suit also using baking soda you will raise your TDS (total dissolve solids) in your water allot faster and will need a water change sooner, Depending on the time of day you test for Ph it will be different Example if your Ph is sitting at about 7 ppm and you run you hot tub for a 4hr filter cycle 2 times a day as you should with a hydropool just after your filter cycle stops you will notice your Ph is high because of the amount of air in the water so adjust your alkalinity and don't worry to much about your Ph... if your using Bromine puck they will drive your alkalinity down you should have to adjust this every 3-4 weeks on average.. if you use a brominator build into your filter with the hydropool set your dial to 4 1/2 and just leave it then shock as needed. if you have anymore questions send me a pm i will be glad to help

I have to Agree the Aquatrainer is an amazing product made by Hydropool I have been in the hot tub industry for 13 years and i have to say in my opinion the best 2 are the aquatrainer and D1.

look up a cmpany called central spa supply the pre filter I use is called the fiber-Filter and it works great. it retails for around 30 bucks.

Take a look at www.hydropoolspas.com they have a nice swimspa...
