Need For Ozone On Top Of Caldera's "frog" System
« on: April 18, 2010, 11:57:42 am »
I am looking at the Caldera Martinique (It's for indoors and needs to fit through a 6'8" opening. When discussing filtration/purification the dealer discussed many of the benefits of the mineral/bromine Frog system. He said that other than an initial pH set, I didn't need anything else. When I asked about Ozone, he mentioned that it wasn't necessary but it was only about $100 to add it.

Any thoughts on the with/without ozone on an indoor hottub?

Thanks in advance

I would say on a Caldera, with little or no off gassing, you should go ahead and add it.  Especially if they are only charging an extra $100.  Check to see if they are installing the factory ozone.  If not, what are they using?

I agree with Dan - especially his question about the exact brand/type of ozone you will be getting for that price...

Do plenty of research, before putting your spa indoors.  Make sure your have enough ventilation, and control humidity and off-gassing of chemicals.  There have good some good discussions about indoor spas, ozone, and health issues, in the history here.  Some of it is probably in the "Dead Horse" section.
