Does Marquis Microsilk work?
chem geek:
It's a process and was not created by Marquis but by Jason Hydrotherapy and it is described in this link. It's basically a pump that puts compressed air into the water and then breaks up the bubbles into very tiny ones as the air expands. The bubbles are claimed to be negatively charged and that can be created by an air ionizer (usually via corona discharge -- yes, similar to creating ozone) but they don't describe using that.
Quickbeam:
Thanks Chem Geek.
I took a look at the link you included, and under the "FAQ" section I found the following question and answer:
"If I order a combination bath, can I run both at the same time?
Yes; however, the cleansing effects of MicroSilk will be diminished when operated simultaneously with a Whirlpool or AirMasseur hydrotherapy."
That would seem to suggest that the process would not be as effective if you were running the jets in your tub. Not sure I would want to pay an extra $1,000 or $2,000 for a process that was diminished when the jets were on.
chem geek:
Yes, the small bubbles will get swept up by the larger ones and will get removed too quickly. The idea is to have the small bubbles stay in the water and you to be immersed in them. If you like using jets, then that's not compatible with this system, at least not at the same time.

Hottubguy what's the Spirit priced with the microsilk added onto it (without a sound system)?

Somewhere in the 9's. I sell it at my store for $9,499

Correct. As soon as you turn the Jet pump on the microsilk pump kicks off. I like to use the microsilk for about a half hour then another half hour with the jet pumps going
