Question 1

Is this a standalone unit or do you still need to use the blue and yellow spa frog bromine floaters as well?

Accepted Answer

This is a standalone unit. It is also chlorine based. If you were to use the bromine floater it would counteract this product.

Question 2

We don't use the hot tub every day. How often should I run the jets to keep the minerals and chlorine levels constant? The seller can't answer

Accepted Answer

Most hot tubs have a “clean cycle” that automatically runs the pump for a short period of time typically 20 minutes twice a day. I’ve been using the “Ease” floating system for over a year now and it seems to work out just fine! Because I was totally brand new to the world of hot tubs just over a year ago it took me a little while to learn all the tricks to keeping the chlorine, PH and alkinlinty levels in range but I now have it nailed down and I change the lower “gray” part of the “Ease” cartridge out about once a month and I have a 500 gallon tub so I adjust  the dial on the bottom of that cartridge to “2” and I change the top “Mineral Cartridge” the “blue” part out about ever 3 months and each time I change out the bottom gray cartridge I add a bag of their “shock” and run the pump a few times. It seems to be working well now. I only wish that that the “Ease” company would include 3 packs of the shock in the box that they sell that has 3 gray cartridges in it? You have to add a pack each time you change the cartridge so if you order the box with 3 gray cartridges and don’t order 3 packs of shock seperatly youkll be out of luck when you go to change out the gray cartridge!

Question 3

Does it work with swim spas, 2000-2500 gallons? How long would it last?

Accepted Answer

The instructions show adjusting the setting for up to a 600 gallon hot tub. This would likely be too small for 2000 gallons; I’m not sure if it would work to use multiple cartridges. With a 400 gallon spa, a cartridge normally lasts 3-4 weeks.

Question 4

Can I use this one for pool as well? It is small above ground pool - 800 gallons

Accepted Answer

You could but remember Frog @ease is specifically measured for a hot tub which is about 300 gallons.  You could set the delivery at the highest concentration, but it wouldn't last as long.  Take a look at a product called Flipping Frog (something like that).  I ordered it for my hot tub once and it was rated for a larger volume, put out too much chlorine for the hot tub, so I wound up putting it in my pool.
