Water Quality Maintenance
Cal Spas Clear Water Plan
Great spa water is easily achieved when the right chemicals and / or systems are used and the Cal Spas “Clear
Water Plan” is implemented. The key to clean, clear, and safe water is to fully understand how spa water reacts
to users, system operation and chemical use. The “Clear Water Plan” will help give you that understanding.
The first thing to understand about taking care of your spa water is that preventive actions are much easier to do
than correcting water quality issues. For this reason, we offer the “Clear Water Plan” as a simple, easy to follow
guide to clean, safe spa water.
Follow the Right Plan
You will need to decide which chemical plan or alternative sanitation option works best for your spa water.
Consult your Cal Spas dealer for the right decision with regards to your lifestyle and spa usage. Whichever plan
you decide on, follow it completely and don’t take shortcuts. These plans will provide you with clean, safe,
clear spa water with a minimum of effort.
Traditional Chemical Options
Choose from either Bromine tablets or Chlorinating granules as your sanitizer of choice. Both work well when
the appropriate “Clear Water Plan” is followed. Make sure you follow all instructions and use only Cal Spas
brand chemicals.
Alternative Sanitation Options
Cal Zone Quest 2000 Ozonator
This system automatically generates ozone gas and injects it into the spa water. Ozone gas is far superior to
chemical bromine or chlorine in sanitizing spa water. Saves replacement chemical cost and guards against
forgetting to add chemicals.
Cal Clarity Automatic Bromine Generator
This system automatically generates and releases free bromine into the spa water. No more need to add
chemical bromine tablets or chlorine granules. Saves replacement chemical cost and circumvents the need to
add chemicals on a regular basis.
Cal Inline Sanitation System
This system incorporates minerals that work continuously with low levels of Bromine to sanitize the spa while
creating water that feels soft and is crystal clear. Uses pre-filled cartridges that save on measurement hassle and
works for weeks without replacing.
Before You Begin
Before you begin a “Clear Water Plan”, you should understand that chemicals or systems alone will not take
care of your spa water. Other factors such as Filtration and Bather Load also play an important part.
