I just want to thank the Moderators (and others) on this forum for all their helpful info on this site. I found this site while researching for info on an above ground pool. I figured if BBB can work in a pool, it should work in a spa. So I went to Walmart to get most of the chemicals and Lowe's for the others. I drained my spa then refilled. It took me about two weeks to stabilize the chemistry. I think I had some algae growing in the water lines. Since then, my water is the clearest, cleanest, and smells the best that it has ever been for the last six years. I have never enjoyed it this much. I get out feeling relaxed and my skin feels so much better. I was spending about $100 plus every 2-3 months on Brilliance for Spa's chemicals which ended up ruining valves, whirl jets, all four pillows, and air diverters before I came across this site. I used Baqua Spa before then. For the last month, I have only went through 1/2 gal bleach, 4 oz of muratic acid, and very little Borax and Baking Soda. I owe you guys big time. I am still looking at getting a pool around spring time. When I can swing it, I will be joining this forum as a lifetime member. Thank you guys again.

Jim
