Spa Chemical Options
Since mankind decided that hot tubs would be fun we have had to face the challenge of keeping that water clear and safe. Chlorine and Bromine have been in use since almost day one. Both have their advantages. They kill everything. The down side is also that they kill everything. By that I mean that Chlorine and Bromine are both caustic chemicals. That is both how they function and what makes them less desirable. Not only do they kill... (posted by Jeff 4 years 135 days ago.)

Could Your Choice of Spa Cover Save The Planet?
If you have ever had to get rid of a used spa cover, it probably dawned on you that it wasn't easy.
