cooold ohio Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 It seems that I have stabilized the chemicals within the last week. I have great readings now with PH Bromine Alkalinity Ect. Now the book says I should drain the tub one month after my first fill. Can anyone tell me why I should do that now that I have all Chemicals balanced?

dave nh Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 It seems that I have stabilized the chemicals within the last week. I have great readings now with PH Bromine Alkalinity Ect. Now the book says I should drain the tub one month after my first fill. Can anyone tell me why I should do that now that I have all Chemicals balanced? I know when i filled mine for the first time it was suggested that i immediately drain and refill after shocking to clear the lines of any fould water, which makes sense. Does the book elaborate why after only 1 month? to answer your question from my perspective i do not know why you would need to drain and refill. However i use dichlor not bromine. good luck.

spatech (the unreal one) Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 It seems that I have stabilized the chemicals within the last week. I have great readings now with PH Bromine Alkalinity Ect. Now the book says I should drain the tub one month after my first fill. Can anyone tell me why I should do that now that I have all Chemicals balanced? A few people suggest that but to me its more of a general rule based on the expectation that the new tub owner will have struggled with water care and a fresh start is in order. It really should be considered on a case by case basis so if you have things in order, by all means continue and enjoy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooold ohio Posted October 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Thanks for the responses. I will soak on for now and drain and refill in 4 to 6 months as recommended by dealer and this forum. Thanks again...JP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
