Natural Hot Tub Water Care - 4-Month Supply - Weekly Spa Maintenance -Balancer, Clarifier, Conditioner - Simple, Soft, & Safe Water

It works well to keep the pH balanced. My wife's eczema flared up when we would use the hot tub a lot. Even though I maintained the hot tub well, her eczema would come back. I was getting lonely using the hot tub by myself, so after a little research, I thought I would give this a try. It is expensive , but should last half the year (78oz / 3oz = 26 uses)I was skeptical but I have to say I am not lonely in the hot tub any longer. It really makes it easy to take care of.I would recommend starting with new water and clean tub. I did a chlorine shock at 80° after it got to 104° I balanced the pH and calcium hardness and used chlorine granules to get all levels good. I waited a day, checked my levels, and they were the same. I added the Silk Balance and circulated it for 10 minutes. It seemed to "lock" in the pH really well. It made our skin feel great, no smell at all and her eczema is going away!Our tub is only 200 gallons. After each use, I check our 1" chlorine dispenser after each use, using only one tab at a time, until its gone. (Barley use any chlorine anymore!) I add non chlorine shock (MSP) about 1/2 tablespoon and run the pump for 10 minutes. That is it. Once a week add the Silk Balance. I found it will slightly raise alkalinity and pH and level out just fine.For less then a $1 per day I solved the problem, and we are using much less chlorine and other chemicals, that I am not even factoring in.

We bought a new tub and decided this was the best time to try Silk. Our previous tub generally had a yellowish tint to the water. Even though everything continued to test in normal ranges we couldn't seem to get rid of the color. We also used bromine and found we were always itchy and smelly after being in the tub.Enter Silk...we waited a week before adding Silk Balance to the water. This was so we could ensure the ph was balanced. Every other test checked out fine but for some reason raising and lowering the ph feels like more of a guessing game on. For this reason I like to wait overnight to let the chemicals balance out before testing and adjusting. We also adjusted to using Silver Ion cartridges with a non-chlorine shock after each use. I found after adding the Silk that the water turned a slight blue color. Not so much that it looked fake but much more appealing than the yellow of the old tub. The ph has only required minor adjustments the first and second week. After the third week it tested perfectly. The amount of effort required to maintain the balance of chemicals seems to be drastically less than without the Silk. This could be because of the Silver Ion, but we have also noticed less itchiness which we did have with the Silver Ion alone.The price is expensive however after receiving the shipment I took a look and we estimate the bottle will last us around 6 months. Also, I expected this would be a powder. There isn't really a reason why, I was just shocked when I discovered it was liquid.

Yep, it’s expensive but it’s worth it! I don’t have to test my swim spa water with those silly strips and add separate chemicals, this does all the work for me! Great product!

We have been using this product for almost a year now. We gave up a very expensive salt system that was a complete headache and switched over to Silk Balance. We haven't looked back since. This is a wonderful product; keeps the water crystal clear and I am no longer dealing with the continual rise of pH and chlorine levels that I was plagued with with the salt system. When I received my latest shipment I realized the color of the product had changed. I was worried that perhaps I got a bottle that was expired so I called the manufacturer. They changed their formulation late in 2014. The new color is bluish/green and no longer white. He said it would also soften better. Just fyi for those of you out there already using the product and perhaps noticing the color change.

This is the most amazing product! I first tried this out when my new spa arrived in 2010 (it was part of the start-up kit that was supplied). It makes the water really feel silky beyond belief! I love it, and so does everyone who has ever been in my spa. I've never seen anything like it! The only drawback is the price - it is seriously expensive! As a result, I ration it over the year, and don't use it constantly. Too bad, because I would really like to use it all the time.

Hot tub owners have so many products they can choose from and this is a must. Silk balance really does extend the life of your water, keeps it perfectly in balance and is worth every penny. No scum lines ever. No foamy water ever. Save yourself hours and hours of hassle and buy this.My stack is silk balance, bromine tabs set to low, stain and scale control, and spa guard enhanced shock.

We often got itchy after being in the hot tub, even with the test telling us all the chemical levels were optimum. Adding this stuff worked like a charm - no more itch! Wish it was a little less expensive, but I still love it!

This product works very well and is helpful for people with sensitive skin. Because it is so expensive, it doesn't achieve 5 stars.
