Last week I drained and cleaned my hot tub. Water was sparkling clear, everyone is happy. I go out today, and the GD water is cloudy again even though no one has been it. I think, maybe it's the PH or Bromine levels. I test my water, and i'm spot on.

So can anyone provide me with some guidance because this cloudy water is really pissing me off. Any suggestions as to what is causing it, and how I can remedy it would be greatly appreciated.
Did you clean out the filter really well before filling it back up? There also could have been sediments in the piping system that didn't get removed. These would have just been blown back into the clean water when you turned it on.

I have also found that you really have to keep the chemistry - especially the chlorine - at optimum levels to prevent cloudiness of the water.

There's also a chemical you can get at pool supply stores or home improvement stores that clears the water by coagulating waterborne deposits together, so that they are better trapped by the filter.
