chlorine or bromine. Sanitizing your spa water is the most important spa 
maintenance you can do for yourself. 
 

Total Alkalinity: 

This refers to the ability of the hot tub water to resist 

changes in pH. Controlling alkalinity can help keep your pH in the appro-
priate range thereby lessening the need for pH balancing. If the TA is 
too low the pH level will fluctuate rapidly from high to low. If the TA is too 
high the pH will tend to be too high and will be very difficult to bring back 
down. 
 

Calcium Hardness: 

This is a measurement of dissolved calcium in the 

water. Calcium will help control the corrosive nature of the spa’s  
water. 

WARNING: 

Never store chemicals inside the equipment area of your 

spa. 

 
IMPORTANT: 

Do not use Hydrogen Peroxide based sanitizers in your 

spa. When using Chlorine or Bromine tablets you must use a floating 
dispenser. These chemicals can have an extremely  
corrosive effect on certain materials in the spa. Damage caused by use 
of these chemicals, or improper use of any chemicals, is not covered 
under the spa’s warranty. 

 
OTHER ADDITIVES: 

Many other additives are available for your spa. 

Some are necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water, some aid 
in cosmetic water treatment and others simply alter the feel or smell of 
the water. Your Authorized Dealer can advise you on the use of these 
additives.
