Did you ever check the pH level. That is why you smell it. Bromine is naturally low on the pH scale.To paraphrase, "What recommendations would be suggested for a beautiful clear Hot tub without using Bromine?" OZONE, but that is another subject.

OZONE, but that is another subject.My PH was always kept in the correct zone and bromine still smells!My PH is also correct. I have found out that th smell gets worse over time. I try hard to keep my bromine at the lowest level ppm (3ppm) possible but with time and shocking with non chlorine shock the smell comes and sticks to your skinI have 4 lbs of Spa Essentials Bromine Concentrate in granular form. It is 82.5% Sodium dichloro-s -triazinetrione and 14.5% Sodium Bromide. Can I use this since is has a high Dichloro level? If so, Is the 11/2 teaspoon still apply?
