Q: What should I use to clean my spa?
A: Always use a non-sudsing cleaner found
at your spa store.
Q: When my in.clear bromine generator is off does
the sodium bromide continue sanitizing my spa?
A: No, the in.clear system does not sanitize if inactive.
If there is a residual bank of bromine, bromine
continues to sanitize the spa water. The in.clear may
be off at certain times and the spa will still be fine
and clean.
The sodium bromide is converted to bromine as it
passes through the electrodes of the in.clear system
and the pump associated with the in.clear is running.
Q: Why is my spa water cloudy/oily?
A: If your spa becomes cloudy or oily due to bather
load perform an additional Boost and wait for
24 hours to see if conditions return to normal.
If the problem persists consult a spa/pool dealer
to have your water balanced properly.
Q: Does the sodium bromide evaporate?
A: No. Sodium bromide is only lost through splash
out, eaks or when draining your spa.
Low or no bromine reading
Make sure the maintenance level is properly set
according to the procedure described in the section
Set Maintenance Level. Make sure there is no error or
warning message on the display, the cell is activated
and that water is circulating properly through the cell.
Make sure water chemistry is balanced. Refer to
the section Adjust Water Chemistry in the Spa for
more details.
Test your spa water for phosphate to make sure there is
no contamination. Phosphates should never exceed
100 PPB. Phosphates can be introduced to your spa
water by household cleaners, soaps and lotions.
Change your filter or clean it with a filter cleaner
and rinse thouroughly with cold water.
Make sure the in.clear cell is not damaged and that
no calcium or lime deposits appear on the cell plates.
Clean your cell regularly (at least once a year).
Long recovery time after usage
Activate Boost Mode at the appropriate level every time
you use your spa. Refer to the section Determine the
Boost Level.
Heavy bather loads will require longer boost periods.
If bromine level is below 3 PPM following a boost
period, re-activate Boost Mode to bring the bromine
bank within 3-5 PPM.
The bromine bank should always be regenerated
following a boost period. If a high boost level does not
regenerate the bromine bank properly, increase the daily
filtration time.
If bromine production is still inadequate after following
all of the instructions above, biofilm deposits could
be causing the lack of bromine generation. Flushing
products such as Sea Klear Spa System Flush, Swirl Away
or National Chemistry Spa Purge have shown to be
effective for biofilm removal.
