pg_rider,
A drain and refill may be in order. I'll see how it goes, tonight it was still cloudy and I put a little more clarifier into the tub. I may end up dumping and refilling.
Boni,
It very well could be ... us Italians love dunking bread into olive oil [smiley=thumbsup.gif]. I grew up dunking bread in olive oil and gravy (for all those non-Italians it'll be an expalnation if needed - it ain't brown gravy!)
windsurfdog,
It also applies to us not so newbies, had I used 2 teaspoons this might not have happened. No guarentee but it might have been avoided.
I wrote this because I read too many people saying stuff about not using dichlor regularly or want to use very little ... my crystal clear tub went bad very quickly with minimal use while using dichlor and ozone. I won't comment what would have happened if I didn't use dichlor!

lskarp,
My dealer was right on the money with that. I keep my diverter valves with water going through them all the time. My tub has enough power IMO to handle all the jets working to some degree. I also have neck jets like windsurfdog and even "closed" water comes out of them as well. I think people forget that water will go bad without circulation.
hottbpete,
Just listen to what salespeople have to say and come to your own conclusion. I use baking soda, calcium increaser, dichlor and MPS only. Once in a while I use PH down when I goof on the baking soda. BUT and it a big BUT my water comes out of the tap with low calcium, low alkalinity and a PH of 6.8 ... great water for adjusting up.
I do not use my dealer's recommended treatment. That consisted of N2 and only using enhanced shock once a week with "regular" use. Although she insisted that all her customers have great success, I would almost guarantee that I whould have this problem all the time. The nice thing about a forum such as this is you can sort out the good from the bad.
Yes, you need to monitor the tub - I add dichlor every other day. I check PH once or twice a week dependng what 's happening with the tub. If need be it gets a scoop or two of something. Every so often you need to drain and refill, you might get 3 or 4 months or you may get 1 or 2 - it all depends.
