Welcome to our forum.
If it's in your budget you might want to purchase one.
Vinny's logic works for me. Since chlorine will be more effective at 7.3-7.4ish rather than higher, I'd rather have my water balanced at a slightly lower pH. An $8 bottle of liquid calcium will probably last me a year, if my city water continues to have 70ppm Ca. Worth it.Is there any validity to hard water being easier to keep clear? To not foaming as much? (Harder water is harder to suds up in the shower).

I have yet for someone to tell me why Calcium Hardness is important?? I know that in concrete/masonary type pools and spas if your water is low in CA it will precipitate it from those type of surfaces ruining them over time. But PVC ,Acrylic and SS heating elements have no calcium to precipitate??? So, I need someone to tell me why CA is important in a modern Hot Tub? If theres a logical reason for it's importance I will start worring about it more and reccomending it's importance more to my customers.
