Rola ChemTB-1-24 Scumbug Oil Absorbing Sponge for Swimming Pools

New hot tub owners and bought this to see what it does. At first I thought it wasn't doing anything so I took it out. A week later I had foam, water wasn't as clear and you could see oil residue on top of the water. Threw the Scumbug back in and noticed a difference within a few days. It does work!

It does exactly what it is supposed to do. I wring it out and rinse it each time we use our hot tub and it noticeably collects grime each time. (Don't wring the dirty water back into the hot tub ;-) )

This thing actually works quite well. Since around 24 hours after tossing it in my hot tub the occasional slight oil sheen that would occasionally exist on the surface of the water disappeared. Just squeeze it out and rinse when it becomes sodden.

A must have for your hot tub... After just one day the "scum" film, both floating and around the water line, was gone. Plus it is fun having it float around.

These might work great in a spa, but don't seem to do much of anything in my above ground pool

Bought this for my mom's pool, and she assures me that the amount of oil/goop this thing collects is mind-blowing! A great purchase to help keep her pool clean.

I was expecting it to soak up more of the oils and film in my pool but it really only adhered to it so it needed to be cleaned regularly. Also, I only bought 1 but have 2 skimmers and wish I would have bought 1 for each skimmer.

So far it has worked great to keep the scummy bubbles away. After floating in the water for a few days it also seemed to clear up. I would recommend and by again.

The picture shows two scumbugs. But you get only one. Very misleading.
