A few years ago someone told me the best material to use for an O-ring seal in swimming pool and spa water was peroxide cured EPDM (ethylene propylene dimonomer). Is this still the case or is there a newer material which lasts longer in the chlorine water environment?

no epdm is the best

A short video that describes basic water chemistry and the controls required for safe water.

I don't want to adversely effect my pool water by using a wrong chemical. I just want to clean the outside of the glass to rid it of the white smokey haze. I believe the cause is splash from the waterfall over the glass from my spa to my pool. The white haze will not rub off. It currently covers only portions of the glass, but I believe it will eventually cover all the glass, dulling the look of the spa, especially at night when I turn on the spa light. I need ideas to erase or remove the offending build up on the glass.

it is hard water calcium build-up. I have the same problem on the tiles of my outdoor spa where the waterfall flows past..

You can go to a pool store and get a cleaner.

Spa is full and has the flow over the wall working while the pump is running. Once the pump stops running, the spa drains about 1/2 way down. What would cause that? My spa has always maintained a full water level until just recently.

You have a leak somewhere...look at the plumbing underneath.

The swimming pool we are using is an open one and has a spa there too. The pool water is naturally not warm. My husband gets into the hot water spa as soon as he is done with swimming which is just next to the pool. I have heard about health hazards of taking a cold water bath just after a workout which warms the body. But what about the reverse ie what if a body comes in contact with warm water from cold water in say 5 seconds?

the shock can make ur heart stop. no joke.

I'm talking about the circular, built-in to the ground, permanent hot water spas with jets and seats about 5-8... How much does one cost to install?

10,000-14,000 in TX

Lots of pool companies will come out and give you an estimate. They don't charge a fee for this and it will give you an idea of materials and costs. If you are putting one next to an in-ground pool, I would definitely not go "cheap" on this. You wouldn't want your pool damaged in the process.

We have one with our pool, and use it constantly. Ours seats 6-8, and if I was doing it over again, I'd build slightly larger. It's really nice to float completely across the spa with the jets on.
