Well, I like using Dichlor. Since the spa will have ozone and Silver Ion cartridge, you can use MPS and soak chlorine free, but you will want to do a chlorine shock every couple of weeks or at least once per month.

You may find that using a small amount of Dichlor after each soak is better in the long run - if you do it right it will be gone when you next use the tub. If you remember to run the jets with the lid open after adding Dichlor, you should have no real odor.

And it's cheaper than MPS> and it gives you less TDS.

I also like Brilliance (Bromine).

I thought about going with the marble finish also... it was a toss up.  My wife wanted the pearl so... you know.  It is going to be very rich in color.  It wont have any gray in the tub which is a plus for my set up.  Cant wait to see it at night. Pouring concrete right now.

I am sad because my dealer is making me wait till Thursday to deliver.  I tried to set it up for today but he was to busy.  I guess the concrete will have plenty of time to cure!! Pics will come soon WHY NOT. What web site should I use for Pics? Recovering from Vegas still sleepy.   :P

;)CONGRATS... YOU'LL LOVE IT. I HAVE ONE MYSELF!

I was in our local HS dealer today picking up Dichlor. They had a Pearl Grandee with the gray cabinet set up in their wet test area.  Sure looks great.

Finally got my Grandee missing the stairs and the wright cover. I got a reverse cover so it flips toward the back of the spa instead of to the side.  It sure is nice…defiantly “Spa Topia”!!! Installation went well, no problems just plugged in and fired it up. Doing the back yard area around it in a Japanese Garden type of theme.  Got a lot of work to do but it will be worth it.   I will post some pics when I get my steps and cover.  My dealer said it will take a week to get my stairs. Pearl and Espresso is gorgeous.  WOW WHAT A SPA!!     8-)
