ConstantClean Plus is the addition of ozone and the SpaFrog Inline cartridge system.  The ozone helps to limit chemicals and I’m a big fan of the SpaForg Inline system which uses minerals (silver chloride) and a Bromine or SmartChlor cartridge to maintain the water.  In my tub at home I have this system and I am only changing a cartridge and sprinkling in a non-chlorine shock once a month.  No daily or weekly maintenance for me.

Thanks for that answer.  I wasn't aware of the "plus" portion of their system.  It sounds almost like a no brainer for that add-on.

Alright, so my wife brought up another question (so for so many!).  Is the ozonator NEEDED with the marquis inline system, or can you just use the inline system?  She isn't a big fan of the ozonator.

Also, if you only use the tub say, 2 times a week, will the inline system/ozonator not be worth it?  Or is it a good option to get one or both of these options if you don't use the tub that much?

Thanks again...I really appreciate everyone's help.  I really just want to make sure every stone is turned before we got ahead with this purchase.

MarKee:
It will work fine without the ozone.  I would still recommend having the SpaFrog Inline cartridge system added.  Ozone can always be added down the road, but the SpaFrog Inline system has to be added when the spa is being built at the factory (it can't be installed at a later point).

Agree with this. Skip the ozone and get the inline system

Ok....that is good to know!

Can you use either bromine or chlorine in the inline system, or is it just bromine?
