"i am a little confused regarding chemicals"
my chairman II arrived sat, electrician coming wed...i am a little confused regarding chemicals for this hot tub...the vision cartridge is replaced every six months..the dealer also told me to drain water every six months...not three...he also told me i didn't need to drain the tub after the first 30 days...
plus he said only put maybe a tsp of clorine once a week, and shock with mps once a week...my other question is ..if i decide to drain tub sooner then six months does that mean i have to replace the vision cartridge at that time or can i use the same one...
two different salesman in the same showroom had different answers..is there a spokesman for d1 out there that can set me straight ...i will be ready to fill tub on wed...come on d1 reps chime in please!!
No need to drain the tub after 30 days, (if it was delivered new wraped from the factory), they water test them in the factory with clean chlorinated water to prevent mold growth in the lines during shipping and storage.With the vision cartidge water should be changed around every six months... with regular use, if heavy use then sooner.You'll still need to test the water for chlorine and keep a level of about 1 ppm and shock with mps weekly.I have the same tub, I do 1 tablespoon of dichlor and 35g of spalite (mps) weekly and water is balanced. Just me and the wife that use it though..If you drain the tub before six months...you will need a new vision cartridge,
Wetone, are you saying you don't add dichlor after each use? How does the capacity of the Vision system compare to a standard N2 cartridge?
Just 1 tablespoon once a week...if I remember correctly the vision cartridge has about 6 times more copper and silver in it, and it desolves slower. I've tried the N2 and and it's not even close to the vision cartridge, had to ad chlorine after each use to keep the water balanced.
