Title: re-entering tub after stain & scale control
Post by: Miss_Rosie on January 28, 2006, 05:04:00 pm

Can anyone tell me how long I need to wait before going into my hottub after dosing it with stain & scale control?

Unless there are warnings to the contrary on the container, I'd put it in, run the pumps for 15 or 20 minutes to get it all nice and mixed in, and hop on in.

Sorry, I guess I didn't explain it very well.  The container says to run the jets continuously for 8 hours.  It does not say anything about staying out of the tub for this time.  However, it says when adding the chemical to wear gloves, don't let it come into contact with skin, etc.  Just made me a little nervous so I wondered if I have to stay out for eight hours or if I can go back in tonight.  It's such a nice night, I sure hate to stay out!  Thanks!

I have been in about 20 minutes after adding Stain & Scale.  I never read the part about wearing gloves, I'll have to go back and look at the directions again.
