Just wondering if you empty it and refill during the cold?
Hi, I'm a writer and I have a character who needs to say "There are over ___ chlorine molecules in this hot tub." But I have no idea how to calculate that. You could pick whatever average to huge size of hot tub you wanted if you know how to calculate it. He's a wealthy character.
I have a small plastic molded hot tub we took the outside screwing off will remove the motors. What is the best way to cut it into pieces? YouTube says saws all but it’s more of the traditional hot tub. Would that work for this? Any advice would be appreciated thanks in advance.
This is my one year-old Sundance hot tub. $15,000. The filter is one month old. The hot tub is rarely used maybe twice a month. Since purchase there has been an enormous amount of scale floating in the tub.
Has anyone run into this yet? Any suggestions on how to determine the source and eliminate the problem?
My hot tub has a small fountain for the filter. But a few months back the flow isn't as full as it was when I got it (see pic).
Any idea how to fix it?
My house came hot tub ready with a 40amp 240v circuit on the patio. Some architectural plans I found confirm. Between the patio door / window and the side of the house is 91 inch and from the wall to the column is 107 inches. I was thinking of putting in a Sundance Hamilton measuring 91 x 91 inches. With the extra space accommodating the cover lift. Can someone sanity check this for me? Sundance tubs can derate to 40amps with the heater Turning off during pump run.
I bought a cover from thecoverguys about 7 years ago, and it has held up decently well. It is starting to deteriorate for sure now, with straps beginning to rip and the vinyl cracking. I'm sure it's also gotten gradually heavier/soaked up some water.
I've seen a lot of "Don't Buy from the Cover Guys!" posts on this sub over the years, but I've never seen a great alternative pitched.
So if you were me and in the market for a new Hot Tub cover, where would you say is the best place to look?
I have a 2007 Tiger River Sumatran if that matters.
