Welcome to our forum.
I couldn't drain the tub with the snow. I siphoned less than 4 inches of water off and replaced it. I was using dichlor and every day the chlorine would read 0. I'd add more and for the night it would read in the right range but you could smell the chlorine. I was also using non-chlorine shock, ph up, and scaler. I was listening to the dealer, neighbors, this forum and I made a mess. This stuff turned my mess into the hot tub I had first day of fill only smoother with no chlorine odor. Trust me I want to do this economically as I have 3 in college!!! I have since read the bottle on their shock: Danger, caution...use goggles and gloves.....No ingredients or cautions on their monthly bottle. I will say my water is nice but I will be calling them about ingredients and cautions! simplify your spa naturally, goggles and gloves don't seem natural.....
My water is crystal clear and I have only added a very small amount of chlorine every other day over the past week and the levels are perfect. ....So in plain English, I made a huge mess switched to Eco One and mess is gone, problem is reading the package it's not so natural and it may even be toxic. That is all I wanted advice on...does anyone know if it is safe or natural?
...You mentioned "Liquid" chlorine which was the only thing that gave me concern. Unless things have changed in the past few years, 95% of us use a granular chlorine (Di-Chlor) and most liquids are a TRI-Chlor which would NOT be recommended for hot tubs as it can cause deterioration.
Payton,Been using EcoOne since day one with our spa and have never had an issue. Doesn't get any easier than chucking in a packet from my back door after I get out. The monthly product is all natural and the packets have the same warnings as any other sanitizing product would. Using their product, I never wasted one minute trouble-shooting, or running to a local dealer to buy more products and spend more money to see if I can "fix" some problem by adding more of this or that. I find some who rip on the product, have never used it or simply don't like that it costs a tad more than other options out there. Yet, some will spend $10,000-$15,000 on a spa, then look for the cheapest products to put in their tub, regardless of how much additional time or troubleshooting is necessary in order to get their water correct. I wanted simple and easy and I found this product to be spot on. Good luck with your hot tub.
