What do you do if there is too much chlorine in spa?
If there is too much chlorine in your spa, you can dilute the water by adding more fresh water. Another option is to use a chlorine neutralizer to reduce the chlorine levels quickly. You can also leave the spa cover off for a few hours to allow the excess chlorine to dissipate.
How much weight can a spa cover support?
A spa cover can support on average up to 300 pounds. However, I would not recommend testing this, as your results could clearly be negative. If you get snow or rain on your spa cover it should be fine, but if there gets to be a huge bowl in it, you should make sure to remove it so as not to rip the cover.

Can you have a salt water hot tub and a chlorine pool without cross contamination?
You cannot "contaminate" a chlorine pool or spa with salt or vice versa. Chlorine starts as salt. Chlorine generators use salt to make chlorine. Therefore your "salt" spa is already a chlorine spa, you are just not putting chlorine tablets in it. It is a very common misconception that a salt system is some how different than a chlorine system. There are no "salt generators" and the salt does nothing other than allow a "chlorine generator" to produce chlorine. We get this question almost every day and it's generally because customers are "sold" not "told" about the product they purchased. If you were expecting anything other than purchasing a device that makes chlorine from salt, you will be disappointed. Pool & Spa

How much chlorine in spa is dangerous?
It depends on your 'danger' level. Any amount of chlorine can be dangerous. It only takes a few drops in a gallon of water to disinfect it (kill every living thing in there) after only a few minutes. Chlorine is classified as a toxin, yet it is put in our drinking water and in pools and used in spas. For a normal sized spa, I would never pour more than a cup of chlorine into the spa. 10 ppm is considered the max. If your spa is green and you are not going to use it then feel free to pour 2 or more cups in it. You're better off draining it at this point. To prevent chlorine breakdown, it is recommended that you add stabilizer and its level will depend on how big your spa is. Chlorine is dangerous because it can damage liners and upset water balance. I suggest that you use 2 ppm of chlorine or more then shock your water for it will prevent the bad odor.
