Hello, we have purchased a Caldera Kauai, it is a 3 person 230gallon tub w/ozonator and 24/7 recirc pump. It was delivered yesterday, and this is our first tub.
I balanced the water (ALK/PH) and was told to use 1 TBS of Dichlor and 1 TBS of MPS at the initial startup to both activate the nature2 mineral stick, and get the initial sanitizer/oxidizer level. The water looks and feels good. I know many despise test strips, but after using drops on a fish tank for years, I'm now a test strip guy.
I am using Nature2 test strips, MPS/ALK/PH are all on the OK range.
Only 2 of us using the tub @ 99°, about 30 minutes per night.
We were instructed to use 1 TBS of MPS after each use, and 1 TBS of dichlor weekly.
My question is this: When I add the weekly 1TBS of dichlor, can I add it along with the MPS after use, or should I add it in separately at a different time?
Ideally I add them both together after use either Friday night, or Saturday morning.
