Different brands of chemicals??

[tkruel]

What is everyone's opinion about different brands of chemicals?  Is it ok just to run to WalMart or Fleet farm or are the chemicals from spa dealers far superior??

YOU NEED TO READ THE LABELS!

I was in Walmart and looked at their spa chlorine - it was calcium hypochlorite - something you shouldn't be using.

But with that said some chemicals ARE interchangable - Alkalinity up if it's 100% sodium bicarb is the same as baking soda if it's 100% sodium bicarb.

Again read the lables!
