Month Long Winter Vacation


zich6

Recommended Posts

I have 440 gal, HT and I live in North Idaho where December/January temperatures are frequently below freezing.  I typically test the chemistry every two weeks, but if I lower the temperature to the minimum 80F can I get away for not adding chemicals/testing for 30 days.  Emptying the tub is not really an option.  I would appreciate any other advice.  Thanks

If you dont have one, get one of those floaters that holds bromine / chlorine pucks. Fill it up and turn the dispense rate to its lowest setting. I added a string to mine and loop it around one of the topside jet controls in the corner furthest from the filter, so its not in the most turbulent part of the tub and dispensing too much bromine.
