CanadianSpaTech Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 Again just passing along my experience. They will have gone the way of the dinosaur in a very short period of time here in Canada so no point recommending them. Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted April 8, 2020 Report Share Posted April 8, 2020 And on that note... better stock up on parts while you can. Once discontinued, the price will soar. But if it doesn't work out, one of us here can help you with several other options. Gonna go help people with stuff that doesn't work now. Best of luck.

BeamMeUp Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 We have an inclear bromine salt system. It’s 2.5 Years old. I love it - I find it incredibly easy. No issues with pH, etc. in fact, we dont need to do anything to maintain the water except check the values and shock it once in awhile. I’ve been taking care of regular chlorine pools for almost 30 years and because of the spa salt system, I’m converting our pool to chlorine salt system this year. Yeah, salt cells croak, and they are expensive. Anyway, upon reading above about Canada Health banning these bromine salt systems used with ozone and Potassium peroxymonosulfate, I’d like to know what I can periodically shock my hot tub with instead of Potassium peroxymonosulfate? We also have the ozone generator. I also want to make sure this system is safe to use. Shoelace thought the danger was drinking the water. We do not drink our hot tub water, in fact we don’t dunk our heads under either. Im confused as to what the danger in a residential hot tub? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im confused as to what the danger in a residential hot tub? TIA Hottub jets aerosolize the water when the pump is running. Sure nobody *wants* to drink the hottub water, but if you're breathing you are inhaling some water droplets. Just last year there was a major outbreak of legionaries disease traced back to aerosolized water droplets from an improperly sanitized tub at an expo. The people were not bathing in the water, they were simply walking around the state fair and inhaled the water droplets unintentionally - https://www.npr.org/2019/10/04/767210215/n-c-officials-trace-124-legionnaires-disease-cases-to-hot-tub-at-a-fair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeamMeUp Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Oh god, you’re right. Breathing in the water vapor. I think I can shock with chlorine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skalar Posted March 26, 2021 Report Share Posted March 26, 2021 Hello, Is sodium bisulfate was used to lower pH water can be used with Brom and In.CLEAR system Gecko? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
