I'm wondering if anyone has ever found metallic flakes collecting in their hot tub? I wanted to post an image but I can't figure out how. Maybe it's permission thing or a browser thing. Anyway, the flakes are a little smaller than a pinky fingernail. They are chrome looking on one side and a little darker, less shiny on the other side. If I don't use the tub for a week or two I find about 20-30 flakes resting in the seats. My tub is a Marquis Crown Summit that is less than 2 years old. None of the chrome accent pieces on the tub appear to be wearing. Additionally, the pieces of metal seem to be too thick to be a finish. I showed my service rep and she told me in her 20+ years she's never seen anything like that. My fear is that it is coming from the plumbing but she said that the plumbing is all plastic/pvc/etc. Could it be the pumps? Thanks and if I figure out how to add a photo I will.
