Get started with everything you'll need

Starter set of chemicals has everything you'll need to get started with your hut tub. Using chemicals in a Coleman inflatable SaluSpa and this is our first hot tub. The directions are very clear and specify how much product should be used based on gallons of water or water readings from the strips. We most often use the ph decreaser, water clarifier, water defoamer, and shock. Also usimng the test strips. Chemicals do what they are supposed to do, although the ph decreaser takes more chemical than suggested in the directions. Although we're not likely to use the other products regularly, it's nice to have them on hand should we need them. Now that we've had a great start with our hot tub, we know which chemicals we'll need to buy in the future.

Good starter kit

This hot tub chemical starter kit has pretty much everything you need to get started with a hot tub! I've had my hot tub for a few months and only had basic chemicals. This set has come in handy already!

Mostly okay chemicals for spa maintenance.

Quality varies by product, but mostly okay for spa water maintenance.Products cover most of your basic needs. I'll let you decide on the value based on other competing products and current pricing.I hope this helps. Thanks for reading and liking.

A little more costly than other startup kits

$59 might be a little too much to charge for this set. The bottles are a decent size that will last varying amounts of time depending on what your tap water is like and whether you use chlorine tablets in between drains and refills. I got a similar set for $40 that had most of these items in it and it lasted about a year. This set has a couple extra bottles - metal out and clarifier - that the other kit I got didn't have. The quality is good and I expect most of the bottles will last about a year, while some will only last a few months. That is the way of hot tub chemicals!

Good complete set

This that is complete with everything you need in order to get your hot tub chemicals balanced. I love that the sizes aren't too large and I can store them inside my storage of the spa appointment. I also love the fact that like I said it's a complete side that comes with everything you need to maintain the chemical balance and your spa or pool.
