Bromine or Chlorine?
The 2 most common sanitisers are chlorine and bromine, each has their own advantages & disadvantages which we have listed below.
Bromine Bromine comes in a tablet & granule form these are used with a floating dispenser which floats on the surface of the hot tub water & slowly disperses bromine into the hot tub. This enables the status of the bromine in the hot tub to be easily maintained by keeping the tablets topped up in the dispenser at all times. Bromine is a softer option than chlorine and would be recommended if you or a family member/friend have sensitive skin as chlorine can be harsher on the skin and eyes. Bromine tablets also have less of an odour than chlorine, although chlorine scents only become strong when water becomes dirty. The main disadvantages of bromine is that is very slow to dissolve in comparison to chlorine and especially in hard water areas.
