      You can do that it is kind of hard one the pump seals etc…. My advice would be to turn it down and plan on draining it when you get back. Not the end of the world to drain it but hot tubs do better if you keep water in them

      If you have an aquarium with fish in the tank.
      When you clean their aquarium out if you pull water out into a garbage can you can dump the aquarium water on plants
      It's actually healthy for them something about fish urine ;)

    Hey quick question; I've gone through three things of ahhsome now, and there is still some stuff coming up. Do I need to keep doing it until there is none or very little? I It's important in my case, because my skin is very susceptible to Folliculitis. I recently had a bad breakout of itchy bumps. I didn't know until recently we were supposed to "purge" the hot tub when we drained it; the supplier never told us that :(

      Well, you do realize that the purges are a degerent and will bring some stuff with them. If it were me and I was overly concerned about it I would maybe purge it one more time with something else just a different brand to see if it gets something thie ahhsome is missing. They all have their strenghts a weaknesses. Any other brand would work.
