Still sounds to me like skin products (oils) or laundry products (soap).

I am not sure even drain & refill would change anything, short term maybe. Something else is going on. So call me crazy, but if it's that cold how do service techs do their jobs? Like changing a bad pump or a heater with no slice valves where they have to drain the water, then I assume hang around and refill or the homeowner does it? We get down in the teens here in the PNW, but I can change the water in my spa with a pump and have it back up and running in just over an hour. I am assuming you keep a hose inside or blown out water so you can top off every once in awhile? Even in the 20s it's not like it's going to flash freeze your plumbing. It's just not going to be fun doing it..

Stick to one or the other.
Reading a lot here. We are new to spa life. We have clear water. PH and Alkalinity test good. We have a sick line. Afraid to treat after reading here. We have new Sundance Chelsea. We were told to use the Leisure time shock after each use. Dealer have us a large bottle of a chemical to add when we did intial fill about 1.5 months ago. We have the Sun Purity mineralcartridge and the built in UV light sanitizer unit. I have checked with the dealer 3x about adding some kind of bacteria product. He says no. Reading here we should be. And shocking once a week. Is water maintenance different for different spa manufacturers? I feel like we are missing a step.
