What is the difference between SaniStream and SaniStream+?


What is the difference between SaniStream and SaniStream+?





Darlly Sanistream was the first and original hot tub sanitiser inline-dosing system available to hot tub owners and users.





How is SaniStream+ different?





SaniStream+ builds on the success of the original Sanistream system, now offering a positive easy-to-use screw-thread to fasten the pod securely to the yellow-flower filter handle. 





The photo below shows the original SaniStream system on the left and the SaniStream+ system replacing it on the right . The ‘yellow flower’ handle screws directly into the top of the closed SaniStream+ ­filter.

Can I use SaniStream+ pods with all SaniStream+ filters, even open-ended filters?





Yes! All SaniStream+ pods include a screw-cap to enable this. The cap closes the pod when used with a SaniStream+ open-ended filter filter. Simply add your chosen sanitiser tablets to the pod, screw on the cap, twist the pod to adjust to the appropriate dosing, and place on the built-in support in the centre of the filter. It is as simple as that!

Is a SaniStream+ filter a similar height to a SaniStream filter?





Yes. They will both fit in the same space

How do I adjust the dosing with SaniStream+?





The sanitiser dosing level can be adjusted simply by twisting the pod to select the desired level.

Can SaniStream+ help with compliance of HSG282





In a word, Yes.





HSG282 guidelines are relevant for the use of a domestic-type hot tub in a commercial environment, such as holiday parks or holiday rental properties.





For more information about this, read our FilterCare topic Holiday Park Let Hot Tubs – What is HSG282?





Will the SC815 pods work with the new Sanistream + Filters?





No, only the SC815+ pods will work with the new Sanistream + Filters.





What if I have stock of old SC815 Sanistream Pods?





We will exchange any old DL815 pods to the new DL815+ pods free of charge, as long as the pods are unused and in suitable condition.

Chlorine vs Bromine: Which One Should You Choose for Your Hot Tub?



When it comes to maintaining a clean and sanitary hot tub, there are two main options for disinfecting the water: chlorine and bromine. Both of these chemicals are commonly used in hot tubs and pools, but many people wonder which one is the better choice for their specific hot tub. In this blog post, we will discuss the differences between using chlorine and bromine in a hot tub, and help you determine which one is the right choice for your needs. So if you’re a proud owner of a chlorine hot tub or bromine hot tub, keep reading to learn more about these two disinfectants and make an informed decision for your hot tub maintenance.





Understanding the Basics: What are Chlorine and Bromine?





Chlorine and bromine are two popular sanitisers used to maintain clean and bacteria-free water in hot tubs. Both chemicals are effective at killing harmful bacteria and viruses, ensuring a safe and enjoyable hot tub experience.
Chlorine is a widely used sanitiser that is known for its powerful disinfecting properties. It works by releasing chlorine gas into the water, which breaks down organic matter and kills bacteria and algae. Chlorine is available in various forms, including granules, tablets, and liquid, making it easy to find and use. However, chlorine can be harsh on the skin and eyes, and some people may experience irritation or allergic reactions.
On the other hand, bromine is a less commonly used but equally effective sanitiser for hot tubs. Bromine is more stable than chlorine, allowing it to remain active in the water for a longer period of time. It is also less irritating to the skin and eyes, making it a popular choice for individuals with sensitive skin. However, bromine can be more expensive than chlorine and may require more frequent monitoring and adjustment.





Pros and Cons of Using Chlorine in a Hot Tub





Using chlorine as a sanitiser in your hot tub comes with its own set of pros and cons. Let’s dive in and explore the advantages and disadvantages of using chlorine.






  1. Effectiveness: Chlorine is a powerful disinfectant that effectively kills bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms that can thrive in hot tub water. It provides reliable sanitisation, ensuring that your hot tub water remains clean and safe to use.




  2. Availability: Chlorine is readily available in various forms, such as granules, tablets, and liquid, making it easy to find and use. This convenience allows for easier maintenance of your hot tub’s sanitisation levels.




  3. Skin and Eye Irritation: One of the downsides of using chlorine is its potential to cause skin and eye irritation. Some people may experience dryness, itchiness, redness, or burning sensations when exposed to chlorine-treated water. It is important to take precautions, such as rinsing off after hot tub use and using moisturisers or eye drops if necessary.




  4. Odour: Chlorine has a distinct odour that some people may find unpleasant. This can linger in the air surrounding the hot tub, and it may be particularly noticeable when the hot tub cover is opened. However, using a high-quality hot tub filter and regularly maintaining water balance can help minimise the odour.
    While chlorine is a popular choice for hot tub sanitisation due to its effectiveness and availability, it is essential to consider the potential drawbacks. If you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies, it is worth exploring other alternatives, such as bromine, to ensure a more comfortable and enjoyable hot tub experience.





Advantages and Drawbacks of Using Bromine in a Hot Tub





Using bromine as a sanitiser in your hot tub offers several advantages and drawbacks to consider. Let’s explore these in detail.






  1. Longer Lasting: Bromine has a unique advantage over chlorine in that it remains active in the water for a longer period of time. This means that you won’t need to add it as frequently, reducing the amount of time spent on maintenance.




  2. Less Irritation: If you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies, bromine may be a better option for you. Unlike chlorine, bromine is less likely to cause skin and eye irritation. It is also gentler on the skin, making it a great choice for those with sensitive skin.




  3. Cost: One of the drawbacks of using bromine is its cost. Bromine is generally more expensive than chlorine, which can add up over time. However, some people find the benefits of bromine outweigh the additional cost.




  4. Monitoring and Adjustment: Bromine levels in your hot tub water need to be monitored and adjusted regularly to ensure they are within the optimal range. This can require more effort and attention compared to using chlorine.
    Ultimately, the decision between using chlorine or bromine in your hot tub depends on your specific needs and preferences. If you have sensitive skin and are willing to invest in a slightly more expensive sanitiser, bromine may be the better choice for you. However, if you prefer a more cost-effective option and are willing to take precautions to minimise irritation, chlorine can still provide effective sanitisation for your hot tub. Consider your priorities and make an informed decision based on what works best for you.





Comparison Between Chlorine and Bromine for Hot Tub Usage





When it comes to comparing chlorine and bromine for hot tub usage, there are a few key factors to consider. First and foremost, both chemicals are effective at killing bacteria and ensuring a safe and clean hot tub experience. However, there are some differences that may sway your decision.
Chlorine is known for its powerful disinfecting properties and availability in various forms, making it convenient for hot tub maintenance. It is highly effective at sanitising water, but it can be harsh on the skin and eyes, potentially causing irritation or allergic reactions. Additionally, chlorine has a distinct odour that some people find unpleasant.
On the other hand, bromine is less commonly used but equally effective as a sanitiser. It has the advantage of lasting longer in the water, meaning you won’t have to add it as frequently. It is also gentler on the skin and eyes, making it a preferred choice for those with sensitive skin. However, bromine is generally more expensive than chlorine and requires more monitoring and adjustment.





Determining the Right Choice for Your Hot Tub





Choosing the right sanitiser for your hot tub is an important decision that can greatly impact your hot tub maintenance routine and your overall hot tub experience. After considering the pros and cons of using chlorine and bromine, it’s time to determine which one is the best choice for your hot tub.
First, consider your priorities. If you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies, bromine may be the better option for you. Its gentler nature and lower likelihood of causing irritation make it a great choice for individuals with sensitive skin. On the other hand, if you prefer a more cost-effective option and are willing to take precautions to minimise irritation, chlorine can still provide effective sanitisation for your hot tub.
Additionally, think about the effort you are willing to put into maintaining your hot tub. Chlorine requires less monitoring and adjustment, making it a convenient choice for those who want a hassle-free maintenance routine. However, if you don’t mind the extra effort of monitoring bromine levels and are willing to invest a bit more money, bromine may be worth considering for its longer-lasting sanitisation properties.
Ultimately, the right choice for your hot tub depends on your specific needs, preferences, and priorities. Consider what matters most to you and make an informed decision based on what works best for you. Whether you choose chlorine or bromine, both sanitising options will ensure that your hot tub water remains clean, clear, and bacteria-free, providing you with a safe and enjoyable hot tub experience.

Poor or weak jets in your hot tub? Check the filters!


Hut tub error code showing? Flow error? Poor flow rate? Hot tub jets not powerful? What can we do about this?





The only easy thing you can do realistically is to check the filters.





In today’s busy world, it is easy to forget routine hot tub filter maintenance.





Any, or all, of the symptoms above can point in the direction of the filters or the pumps requiring attention. The pumps are a little beyond the scope of regular home maintenance, so we’ll concentrate on checking the filters.





Don’t forget, safety first! Remember to turn off the pumps and jets before you start.





If your hot tub has a skimmer basket above the filter housing, this is the first place to check for debris and blockage. Removing the basket if fitted, should reveal the filter(s) in the housing. 





Remove the filters and check for dirt and contamination. Sometimes the filters can appear on the outside but have quite a considerable build up of dirt hidden within the pleats. Gently part the pleats to inspect deep within.





Any dirt present should be removed with a deep clean cycle. Have a quick read of our Filter Care topics for help how to clean your filters.

Why is my Hot Tub Water Dirty?


Is Your Hot Tub Water Dirty?





Is your hot tub water dirty? Difficulty keeping the water clear even after cleaning the filters?





Hot Tubs require an investment of time, effort and a little expenditure to maintain water quality to a high standard for you to really enjoy the benefits of the hot tub.





This may not have been fully explained at the time of purchase, or you may have a pre-owned hot tub where this information is not available.





You may even have been lucky enough to move to a property that already has a hot tub but the care and maintenance information is missing.





The Importance Of Cleaning Hot Tub Filters Correctly





Many hot tub owners are not aware of the importance of cleaning the filters or how to do it correctly. Just rinsing them with clean water before refitting back into the hot tub is definitely not cleaning them properly. 





This will not even start to solve the problem of dirty water, so how do we clean and maintain the filters properly? Don’t panic, it isn’t difficult…..





Read our Filter Care topic here about How To Look After Your Hot Tub Water Quality.





Maintaining water quality correctly is so very important. Having an unsatisfactory or even no maintenance plan is likely to be the reason for the water appearing dirty and/or cloudy.





Where Can I Find More Information About Cleaning Hot Tub Filters?





For information about correctly cleaning and maintaining you hot tub filters, follow the link to our Filter Care topic How To Clean A Dirty Hot Tub Filter.





The topic explains how to clean the filters properly, and how to remove the dirt and contaminants trapped within the filter.





Darlly Filters are strong and robust and can be cleaned many times over. Cleaning instead of replacing is not only more environmentally friendly, it will also cost less. Definately a win win isn’t it?





Why Do I Need Two Sets Of Filters?





Two sets of filters are definitely recommended to help with maintaining water quality. Won’t that cost twice as much in filters though? The short answer is no because you are only using one set at any one time. The other set is in the ‘cleaning cycle’ which also includes drying the filters completely to help kill any bacteria hidden deep within.





Read about the importance of having two sets of filters and how this helps maintain the water quality.

Hot Tub Clogged Filter or Flow Error Message? 


Hot tub have a Clogged Filter Flow Error Message?





A possible cause of a Clogged Filter Flow Error Message is a filter desperately in need of a clean.





When was the last time the filters were checked or cleaned properly? Really properly, not just a quick swill with a hose pipe as this won’t help address the real problem here. 





Filter checks should not only be based on time periods, such as weekly or monthly. Consider how often and by how many the hot tub is used. Greater usage increases the possible dirt and contamination that may have entered the water, the filters may need cleaning more often if the usage is higher than usual.





If your Hot Tub Filters block quickly, check out our My Hot Tub Filter Blocks Quickly, Is It Faulty? Filter Care topic.





What does a filter remove from the water? 





Knowing common contaminants and how they can enter the water can help us to understand the reasoning behind the need for high quality filtration and water care.





Quality Darlly filters are designed to trap most contamination that enter the hot tub water, ranging from tanning products to leaves and dead insects. Other contaminants can include make-up, hair, dirt carried in on the bottom of bather’s feet etc.





Why does a hot tub need filters?





How do Hot Tub filters work? 





The way filters work is quite simple. Dirty contaminated water is pumped through the filter which collects dirt, body oils and debris from the flow, the dirt is trapped within the filter and the filtered water is returned to the hot tub.





Can I use the hot tub without filters installed?





All in all the answer is a definite no. Without efficient filtration, the water would soon become contaminated with dirt, from the environment (dust, leaves, insects etc), and from the hot tub users (Sunscreen, tanning products, make-up, deodorant, body oils, dirt, hair etc).





Without efficient filtration, the contaminants could soon build up to a critical level. If left unaddressed, this can cause the bathing water to become cloudy, and algae growth a possibility. 





This can upset the balance of the water and chemical usage increases in trying to deal with the problem. This in turn hastens water saturation where the chemicals cease to be effective. For that reason, the water can then become damaging to the hot tub mechanicals and/or affect the surface feel of the hot tub moulding.

What is Inline Sanitisation and how can it help with maintaining water quality? Darlly SaniStream Filters and SpaPods dispense your choice of bromine or chlorine directly into the water.

Does my hot tub use filters?


Does my hot tub use filter? All hot tubs have and need filters because If they didn’t, the water would soon become so dirty with contamination. Meaning that it would become completely uninviting to bathe in and also unsafe. 





It may be that your hot tub water is not very inviting and you are now looking for a solution to your hot tub’s yacky water….





Why is the water dirty in my hot tub?





There can be numerous reasons why the water is not crystal clear. Does the control panel show a flow error message? If so, it could be that the filters that you don’t know about in your hot tub are severely contaminated and nearly completely blocked.





If you don’t have a flow error message, it could be that there aren’t actually any filters in the filter housing, and the dirty unfiltered water is just being pumped back into the hot tub which is not ideal is it? 





Why does a hot tub need filters?





Efficient and effective filters are not only an important necessity to help maintain high quality water for the bathers. The filters also help to keep the unseen plumbing and pipework clean and protect the expensive pumps.





We obviously need to do something about this poor water quality, so where do we find this filter housing?





Where are the filters located in my hot tub?





The filter housing is usually located inside the tub just below the waterline. There is usually a recess in the hot tub where the water flows into the filter housing, usually through a basket type device called a filter basket or skimmer basket.





This is designed to catch and stop any larger items being sucked down and causing damage to the filters, or even the pumps.





The filters are usually located below the skimmer basket, but before we start removing the lift-off panels or the skimmer basket, ensure that the hot tub is switched off for safety.





Take a look under the skimmer basket into the filter housing. Hopefully you should find one or maybe two filters there.









Where can I find information on how to clean hot tub filters?

Why you should let hot tub filters dry after cleaning


Why do hot tub filters need to dry before refitting?





Why you should let hot tub filters dry after cleaning





It is easy to think that once you have completed the final and seriously thorough rinse of cleaning your hot tub filters that the job is done. But is it? 





Well, not quite……..





Just as important as all of your effort, time and care taken cleaning the filters is the real final stage, drying. Complete and thorough drying.





Why do we need to let the filters dry? They’re only going back into the water in the hot tub aren’t they? Well, yes they are, but that is the only thing you want going back into the water isn’t it? We really don’t want bacteria in there do we?









Hot Tub Bacteria?





Bacteria. Like all other organisms, bacteria need water to survive. If the filter is not completely dry, the bacteria can thrive deep within ready to be re-introduced into your hot tub water.





A wet filter can trap bacteria and other contaminants that can quickly multiply. 





Thoroughly cleaning the filter, and then allowing it to dry completely helps to alleviate this problem.





Filters left stored wet or damp can often go green with algae which is very difficult to remove and not very inviting to put back into your hot tub really is it?





How to dry a hot tub filter





It is probably not best practise to apply direct excessive heat to a wet or damp hot tub filter so let’s not do that. 🙂





After cleaning, allow excessive water to drain naturally from the filter before placing the filter in a suitable location to allow to dry completely. 





A warm location will aid drying. It can take a surprising length of time for a filter to dry completely, and can be helped by allowing a warm air to flow freely around and through the centre of the filter.   





Two sets of hot tub filters





To allow continuous use and enjoyment of your hot tub whilst cleaning and thoroughly drying your filters, it is good practise to have two sets of filters so that at filter cleaning time, it is simply and swiftly out with the dirty filters and in with the clean. It really is that simple. 





Two sets of filters properly cared for should last much longer than just one set that is in continuous use, plus the fact that your hot tub is available for you to enjoy whenever you want.





Remember, you should not run a hot tub without filters installed.





Washing away all traces of detergent 





After cleaning the filters, it is important to thoroughly irrigate and wash the filters with clean water to completely remove all traces of any cleaning filter cleaner fluids and detergents. It is difficult to over-emphasise the importance of this is as any residuals can affect the water balance and chemistry, which you will then need to address. 





To sum up:-





Swap your dirty filters out of your hot tub and replace with clean ones.





Clean the dirty filters





Thoroughly wash out all traces of cleaner with clean water





Dry the clean filters completely and store until required at next filter change.
