Is the pool and hot tub separate?

I ask because there seems to be some difference in hot tub water chemistry vs pool water chemistry.

I use Ben's info in my pool and a slightly different routine in my hot tub. I still use chlorine but not bleach or borax - strickly dichlor and baking soda. Also, some people use bromine in their tub.

Which ever way you choose make sure you get a good kit - it makes a big difference.
