SoakEh? Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 We live in NW Washington state and have a 20+ year old Discovery spa. We're planning to be away for three weeks this winter and are wondering what we should do to "park" the spa while we're gone. Nighttime temps here frequently drop below freezing, occasionally into teens or single digits (though that seems less likely this winter with El Niño weather pattern). Short duration power outages (usually less than one day) aren't uncommon. When power comes back on, tub automatically resets to 100 F. I'm thinking that just before we go I should just shock it, raise the total bromine level to 20 ppm or so, leave the bromine dispenser float full, set the temp at 90 F, and hope for the best. Is that a reasonable approach? I'd be interested in learning what others do in this situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
