Dark Water, Iron I Believe. HELP

[ladwighome]

Well-The Spa is 103-Degrees this morning,  I want to take my first soak today but the water is cloudy and blackish/orange in color.

I am sure it is the Iron left still in the water.  Last Night I put in the start-up chemicals after the spa temp reached 73-degrees as follows and recommended by dealer.

PH-Decreaser

Stain/Scale Remover

Shock

Sanitizer (Chlorine)

I hit the clean cycle again at 2:30am when I got home and again just now, my dealer is closed until Monday so I am kind of stuck with my question unless you all can help.

The Mrs. is fussy about the water color and I want the water clear to obviously.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Well water or city?  If well water did you do any kind of filtering when filling or put in something like MetalGon?  Not sure if that will help, experts?

Yes-Well water and no I did not use an iron filter on the hose but am now wishing that I had.  If it had been recommended  I certainly would have.

Just finished adding more PH-Decreaser as dealers analyisis of water recommended 10-days of this.

Also wiped out orange water line with a paper towel came off pretty easily but certainly dont want to see the shell get stained by the high mineral content.

The Spa Tech is coming out on Monday hopefully he may have some additional advice on clearing up the water.
