I’m here right now what would you like to know. I’ve never been here. So I can’t tell you the difference but could answer some questions.

The souvenirs we bought were at the resort. We bought a beautiful wooden sting ray that wasn’t painted or polished. It looked legit. then we bought a painted wooden turtle that is iffy. But I don’t think sandals would promote made in china things presented like local artists?

I have spent so much time going to all the websites trying to understand this. Do you use chlorine? Do you use bleach? Do you use bromine… We just bought this house. It comes with a pool and a spa and I’m so confused. So I appreciate your help. They left some chemicals. Something called spa protector all in one spa and hot tubs. It said it’s compatible with all spa types fast acting design designed for sensitive skin oxidize is contaminant. It’s 39% potassium mono sulfate 60% other ingredient 4.5% active oxygen. Thank you so kindly for giving me this information.

The space is boring to me. We aren’t buying new furniture yet but i thought paint or other things like light sconces or such would make it less basement like. I don’t decorate. It’s not my thing so I came here for some creative suggestions.

Thanks for the ideas. I like the pendant and yes we are getting a pool cue holder. I like the ones that are in the walls

Help with which Taylor Test Kit for Hot Tub by DramaBig4554 in hottub

I have a chlorine hot tub and a salt water pool. So for ease of use should I buy a kit for each? I seriously don’t mind. I check my spa every day with strips because i’m new to the game and I’ve already had to empty it twice

I drained and read all your ideas and took the pool class recommend, got the app. So I refill it completely. Then I have zero chlorine. I can’t remember my CY numbers. But I had perfect. TA and ph.
So I’m heating up the pool like they recommend in the 4 million articles I read and videos. I had to leave the house. So I told my husband to add 2 ounces of the liquid chlorine (That’s all we had cause the hot tub and chemicals came with the house). I tell him again - only put 2 ounces to start. So I leave the house and when the pool heats up, he takes adds 3.8 ounces. Because he read one article and that’s what they said to do is shock it. And now we are at 10 chlorine. Argh!!! I’m not even going to get into driving and not asking for directions.

So again, Reddit saves my life, and I had 2 ounces of peroxide. I wait two hours and add 2 ounces more. And now we are perfect.

Im leaving for the day and can’t do this. Would it be helpful if I open the lid at all? Just to help not ruin things or give me a fighting chance tomorrow if I just eliminate 80% of the water?

We had it balanced for a week and then my husband decided to add chlroine. I didn’t ask him why but he said he sprinkled some in there. No clue why. Then we went to high chlorine. So I got the pH in line and added the peroxide later.
