Question

I understand thata bool or hot tub can be used a sa mikve, but in a an earlier post one of the rabbis said that you could even dip wearing a bathing suit. Why isn't the bathing suit a chatztzah?

Answer

Answered by Aaron Abadi

Not every pool & hot tub is OK. Please don't get mixed up. A bathing suit is not a Chatzitza (separation). It's very clear in the Gemara and Shulchan Aruch. AA
