Help! As a new owner I'm gotten very confused over the differences and similiarities between Bromines and Clorines. Also, where does the "Baqua Spa" fit in?

granular spa chlorine is less costly and you use less than Bromine. Sanitizer additions are generally after each use of the spa.

BaquaSpa/ SoftSoak is Non-chlorine/Non-Bromine. Peroxide based shock and Baquainide as bacteriacide. Generally, this is a once-A-week application.
