prairiewindmomma Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 We're purchasing a house that has an 8 person hot tub set into the deck. I know the hot tub is 2 years old, and as I've been researching how to maintain the tub, I'm seeing some sharply divided camps between chlorine v. bromine and a bunch of other things... Any insight? Advice? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah CB Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I'm pretty sure it depends on the hot tub. Our tub in our last place had a bromine generator. So easy and wonderful. I didn't have to do much to it. The one we have now needs chlorine every week. The hot tub has been fantastic for dh and the boys. He is in it probably 2 or 3 times a week and there's always at least one of the kids in with him. He says they just talk and talk - it's an opportunity to be away from screens and just have some relaxing one-on-one time. I get in about twice a year ;) The biggest pain is emptying it out and putting all new water in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiewindmomma Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 Yeah, it does look like we're going to have to manually empty and fill it. Do you do partial water changes monthly or a full swap every few months? I suspect our hot tub will get heavy use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
