Welcome to our forum.
The arcitc dealers seem to recommend bromine over chlorine. Arctic utilizes tri chlor which many here no is quite harmful to a hot tub, and in some cases companies void the warranty when it is used.
...the chlorine use in their product brand is trichlor believe it or not. I dont know why they dont use dichlor but I heard that they may be packaging it soon...
I think they must use trichlor because it is the only chlorine product available in puck form for feeders. I'm just guessing here, but I wonder if dichlor dissolves to easily to work in an erosion feeder, and combined with its quick dissipation in hot water, it would be hard to manage residuals.
Okay, so does Artic recomend Bromine or a Trichlor puck? And since I am so inquisitive today,why do some hot tub manufactuters recomend Bromine if Dichlor seems to be the sanitizer of choice? Does it have anything to do with the tub/filter design?

We would be on one or the other since the Arctic system at this time doesn't accomodate Cu or Ag ion purifiers.
I haven't really studied metal systems, but don't you still need a halogen sanitizer to supplement?
