Newbie confused about chemicals (yes, I searched first!)

<< < (3/3)

Sammi:
My father has an old HS Vanguard (2004) in Arizona. He puts a bottle of Spa Marvel in when he refills the spa (twice/year) and uses a floater with 1 bromine tab that he replaces about weekly when it fizzles out. He doesn't seem to have any issues with water balancing.

Meanwhile I have a brand new HS Envoy with the salt system and am adding some sort of chemical almost daily whether it be ph down, alkalinity increaser, chlorine granules, non-cholorine shock.

The only difference is he keeps his spa so damn hot you can't sit in it for more than 10-15 minutes whereas I keep mine in a more comfortable range and enjoy it for 30-45 minutes nightly.

I was sold on the salt system but wonder if its all it is cracked up to be after seeing how hands off his spa operates.
