Title: Vacation - Hot Tub preparation question
Post by: score1more on August 25, 2018, 10:09:38 am
Hi Everyone!

We're leaving on vacation for 10 days.  Looking forward to recharging the ole batteries.

We have a Hot Spring spa with Tri-X filters.  I've drained the hot tub and used a wet-dry vac to remove as much water as possible from the plumbing.  I also cleaned the filters with some TSP and they're all ready to go.  However, I don't foresee a way to get the filters dry enough not to grow mold. 

What's the best practice for storing the filters?  Should I fill some 5 gallon buckets, add an appropriate amount of chlorine for the duration, and cover them?

Thank you very much for your help!

Just leave them out of the spa somewhere that they can dry.

Are you draining the tub because you are gone for 10 days????  seems extreme. 

I've gone weeks (months) without opening the tub before with no issues
