Welcome to our forum.
A couple weeks ago i mentioned i started using the "oxy-spa" and how i had a skin reaction. I waited til thisweekend for the rash to be totally gone and thinking that the oxy-spa would dissipate. Fianally got in Saturday night and the itchiness / rash came back.Thoughts?Thinking i should drain and refill.Thanks39
You are not properly sanitizing your spa. Dichlor once per week is not enough. Even with oxyspa after each use. If you reversed the 2 you would probably be better off, as in dichlor after use and oxy once per week. Really, you need to maintain 3 to 5 ppm of chlorine at all times. With dichlor only, you will need to add it every day or 2 to achieve that. I suggest doing some research on hot tub water care. You aren't properly sanitizing and most likely have pseudemonas (sp?) which is a bacterial infection and requires decontamination.
Forgot to update...Saw my doctor, suspected hottub and recommended drain and refill before doing any unnecessary tests.Drained and refilled. Everything has been good this month....learning curve Thanks39
