Title: Least smelly chemicals?
Post by: xrdirthead on December 06, 2004, 08:21:27 pm

Hi,
This is my fist hot tub and I'm wondering what would be the best chemicals to use on a indoor tub. Are some less smelly than others?
I have been reading the threads in this forum but I'm confused about the use of the Nature 2. It sounded like I wouldn't need chlorine or bromine with nature 2. I would just need dichlor and MPS on a regular basis but later I found some threads where people did use chlorine with it.
If someone could help me set up my hot tub correctly the first time I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Ed

We use Pristineblue which is chlorine free.  No odors and EPA approved.  Go to WWW.Pristineblue.com   to learn more and see if this one is one your interested in.  We have used it for a couple of months now and just love it.  Our first tub and I can't stand the chlorine smell.  Really hiper nose for chlorine, so our dealer said to use this Pristineblue type.

dichlor = chlorine = dichlor = chlorine = dichlor = chlorine = dichlor = chlorine = dichlor = chlorine = dichlor = chlorine = dichlor = chlorine = dichlor = chlorine

I'm so lost on the chemical issue. The more I read the more I'm confused.
Thanks Winnsome. I'll look into the Pristineblue.

Pristineblue might be a fine product but it is not availble in all states....some EPA will not allow it....I am unsure as to why.... Pristineblue shared this with me at the NSPI show....Is it a proxide based like baqua products

You may want to check out The Natural for an indoor spa.  It is an enzyme product that you use with a very little dichlor.  Your water lasts longer so fewer water changes.  Doc's site rhtubs.com has some good info on this product.
