This is a hot tub question....I get 50 lb bags of sodium bicarbonate which as I understand is basically baking soda from the company who supplies my water treatment systems for my well. The material is in a white powder form. In this case, the sodium bicarbonate gets injected into my water supply at a very specific rate with the intention of increasing the PH of my water supply in my house.
On the other hand, I have a hot tub and when I fill the hot-tub, the PH level is still a bit low for hot-tub standards so I go to the hot-tub store and buy their version of a product called "PH-UP" for some ridiculous price. ON this container, the ingredients are stated as 95% sodium bicarbonate and 5%-Other ingredients.
I am trying to figure out if I can use the baking soda from my well supplier in the hot-tub. I am sure if I go to the hot tub store, they will say I need their expensive little container of material so I doubt I'd get an honest answer from these them.
