Is this to be used in place of chlorine? I use bromine as well.

This product is like pool shock. You still have to use bromine as well as this.

The RENU2 helps kill any bacteria in the spa, and the bromine helps to keep it clean.

no i put a third capful every few days a once a week i put a teaspoon of clorine in my tub seems to be working well

Good morning... Renew does NOT chlorinate the water. It's a water shock that's supposed to get rid of soap, deodorant, oils or anything that comes off our skin while using the hot tub. You should still use chlorine. I'm still partial to Leisure Time's Spa 56. Hope that helps.

We use it so we don't have to use as much chlorine. There are times where we do add a little chlorine, but the spa is not maintained on chlorine all the time. Hope this helps.

You do not use chlorine, just the RENU2 and the bromine. It will help keep the chemicals at a normal level, providing you test the water and watch how much you add.

We did not change the water in our pool when we switched but we hadn't put any new chlorine in it for several months. We switched at the beginning of the swim season. The system is designed to create chlorine out of salt so, I would think you would be fine. I am certainly no expert, though. Check with your local pool and spa stores.

I use Bromine in a floater because I don't like Chlorine or salt. Yes, you can use a salt watersystem. Remember to drain and clean pool and system completely if you change from onesystem to another.

chlorine, yes. fluoride, only with the separate elements for such purpose. They're sometimes included when buying online, or just buy separately

No. Chlorine can only be removed by distillation, a charcoal filter, or reverse osmosis. Charcoal can only remove so much, then it must be changed. John

spa choice bromine works great and at a great price. I own a dynasty imperial 450 gal 3 pump tub good luck.

No Shauna, The clorine will mess up and counter the good you do with the salt. You really need to empty and start fresh with your bags of salt. Your pool will stay cleaner longer and is so much more economical and easier on the skin than chlorine. Just protect the digital display on your salt pump with a basket or something as the sun will destroy the read-out and you won't be able to program it. This was my mistake. Patti

I can't see why not because it's meant for things like that. However when you say chlorine generator. Idk if it should be mixed with chlorine but I could be wrong.

It isn't the only thing you need, however you will use the Bromine a lot more than you will use anything else. When I did all the work on our hot tub, that was pretty much all I ever used and the balance was usually spot on. My husband is a tad more "strict" about things so he uses other chemicals I never really had to use. He changes the water every 3 months or so though. Good buy on the Bromide though. You'll definitely get your money's worth. Scale defense is another one that might be used more often. Rarely did I use chlorine. Hope this helps.

I chose to use Bromine instead of Chlorine (just because I let my dogs swim and heard it was better for pets), and just used standard chemicals packaged for spas and hot tubs. It worked well. But you'll want to be diligent with chlorine/bromine and managing the acid levels as the included pool filter is not particularly strong and it doesn't take much for algae growth to start.

It actually works a bit better on plastic. Should not affect your chlorinization.

Hot tubs don't need as many chemicals as a swimming pool does. The bromine helps to maintain the PH balance in the water. If you are keeping your filter cleaned on a regular basis and making sure you keep the hot tub covered, the water should always be crystal clear, without using other chemicals. Invest in some PH strips to tell you that everything is okay or needs some additives.

Not sure because I have a 500 gallon tub. I use one capful Of non-chlorine After each use or once a week. Try calling the manufacturer for an answer or your local hot tub specialist good luck

Yes, you absolutely can and should be doing so. If you look at the specifications, the pool filtration process is longer than the chlorination process. On a daily basis the pool filter pump should be running longer than the salt water chlorinator. The water passes through the salt water chlorinator but without the electric charge it is just doing that, passing through.

No chlorine. We only use the potassium peroxymonosulfate (oxygen oxidizer) maybe once a week. Remember to change stick every 3-4 months.

This is just the oxidizer, that you throw in after using the hot tub. You also need to use either bromine or chlorine.

We don't use chlorine. We leave it up for 2 days then empty it and wash it down with dish soap, rinse it out, then re-fill it.
