Hot tubs and spas maintenance is the most important thing you can do to keep your investment long lasting, clean and safe for use. You need to use chemicals and probably an ozonator to best keep them running at their finest.

The first type of chemical you can use is granulated chlorine, or sodium chloride (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chloride) This is actually table salt, but when used as chlorine, the chemical properties change. Some people don’t like chlorine because of the odor and harshness it provides in your spas and hot tubs (http://choosehottubsdirect.com/hot-tubs/discount-hot-tubs-portable-spa-hot-tub.html). It can irritate the skin and eyes if the levels are too high, so you have to check them regularly with test strips to ensure you don’t have too much in there. However, this is the most popular and perhaps most effective type of chemical you can use.

You can also bromine, which has less of an odor and is gentler on your body. Bromine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromine) purifies it beautifully, but again you have to ensure you have the right amount in, so test often with test strips. Otherwise, you will cause irritation to the skin and eyes, much as you will with chlorine.
