Bleach will kill the smell, but it will also kill the active stuff that makes the reclaim work. It's also really hard on your equipment.

I'm no expert on reclaim, but a number of people have said that aerating the water with something simple like a sprinkler will help keep the odor down.

If your ozone system has not worked in years, why not get one that works? I have sold and installed many form a manufacturer located in Florida and can testify they do work, but, and there's always a but, there are ozone systems and then there are ozone systems. Some are junk. Some are for home spas. Sens me a message if you like and I will tell you whom I rep for.
