Hot Tub Water Woes

Ok, well that gives me a little more peace of mind and I really appreciate the advice. I tend to not have enough patience and I am going to slow down on making adjustments an give everything a chance to adjust after making a small change. From what you all are telling me I definitely think I have been to reactive and aggressive with adjustments which may be why I have been fighting it so much. We will see what it lloks liek when I get home.
Honestly I'm just ready to get back in it as I have been missing using it and y wife has asked for three days when it will be done lol. It has hands down helped my back a ton especially using it in the morning.

It probably didn't filter at all while you were gone because the actual temperature was well above set temperature. It's a safety mechanism. I can't set my tub lower than 93 in the summer because the summer days keep it around 95 degrees and if it's 3 or more degrees above set temp, filter is suspended until it's within 3 degrees. Maybe just don't lower the temp when you leave next time.

I totally agree with you! I don't think it ran other than the two hour circulations. I won't be doing that again that's for sure.

And all was right with the world tonight........ 30 minute soak in a crystal clear hot tub with a glass of bourbon. ;
Got home tonight and the PH was in a good range with the TA being slightly high and the chlorine level perfect. I will check it again tomorrow and see what it is.
If the pH is good and the TA still slightly high would you all continue making slight adjustments over a period of time to see if you could get the TA down some?
