Initial start ( Priming, chemicals )

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

I just filled my tub for the first time. (  I filled via filter hole, alternated two holes )

I turned the power on, the tub was initializing, I turned both pumps on high during initialization. Seems like all went well. - hope I did it all ok 

Should I add some chlorine or aquafinesse right away?

What filter cycles should I set, Tub is equipped with Ozone/UV (Aquanova )

 

Any tips, Thank you!

You should not add aquafinesse ever.

Read the sticky thread on the dichlor/bleach method in hot tub water chemistry section. Bear in mind that ozone and uv will both eliminate chlorine in your water, so shock after each use and expect low or no chlorine the next day.

A new spa should be purged with Ahh-Some spa purge. After testing the spas are often stored for long periods and then shipped around the country which can result in all kinds of nasties growing inside the pipes. Clean that stuff out.
