Good evening everyone, I’m a relatively new hot tub owner, got mine at the end of September 2021. This week I’ve been having some issues maiming my water and looking for some guidance. Last Saturday (7days ago) I had some people coming over so Tested my water and saw that my chlorine levels were very low.. added some chlorine and let it sit upset around. When my guests arrived the level of free chortling was at about 6 (little high but all good since we were about to use it). As we were leaving i added in another tea spoon amount of chlorine into the tub, let it circulate and 20 mins later closed up the tub for the night. Used it on Monday night solo for 20 mins On Wednesday day I tested my water and found the chlorine back down to almost nothing and noticed that the water looked a little cloudy at is deepest level. Added a few caps of shock and then a few hrs later added a cap of chlorine. Checked the water Thursday and noticed that my chlorine was still a little low and added more chlorine in the morning. Came back home in the evening and saw that my chlorine level was stupid high and my alkalinity dropped to 50.. added alka-plus and left it for the night. Checked Friday morning and chorine was back to 3 and alk was still low at 70. Added more alk and went out for the day. Returned Friday evening and saw that my chlorine dropped to 1.3 and alk stabilized at 110. Took a dip for 20 mins and added another 10 grams or so of chlorine and called it a night. Saturday evening after coming home from work I checked my chlorine levels and it was at 0.7. I feel like I can’t keep the chlorine in the tub! My understanding was a cap full should last a week but at this rate I’m using 2.5-3 caps a week.. seems a little much, no? I just added yet another full cap of chlorine Saturday evening and tested the water 30 mins later and the it was back to being crazy high at 9 ppm I should mention that through all of this my PH has been pretty stable at 7.4-7.8. Any thoughts??
