Note:
Perform water balancing weekly and whenever your water is
changed (or when the hot tub is first filled) to assure proper water
condition.
Once your hot tub reaches 95ºF, use our
Bromine Test Strips
(not included) and
add the necessary chemicals (not included) to stabilize your water chemistry.
Turn Pump 1 on high speed before starting your tests to distribute chemicals
evenly. Wait 5 minutes between measurements to allow added chemicals to mix
thoroughly.
Important:
Test the condition of your water in the following order:
1.
Total Alkalinity
(80-120 ppm) – Use our
Alkalinity Increaser
to raise total
alkalinity and
Alkalinity Decreaser
to lower it. Low total alkalinity has little
buffering capacity making the pH erratic. High total alkalinity has too much
buffering capacity making the pH difficult to change.
2.
pH
(7.2-7.8) – Use
Spa Up
to raise the pH level and
Spa Down
to lower it.
Caution:
A pH lower than 7.2 can harm the metal surfaces of your hot
tub and irritate your eyes and skin. A pH higher than 7.8 can
create calcium deposits (scaling) on the shell and equipment.
3.
Hardness
(150-400 ppm) – Add
Increase Calcium
until the proper level is
achieved. Unfortunately, there is no practical way to lower the native water
hardness other than using a different source of water when filling your hot
tub. Low hardness causes equipment corrosion and water foaming.
4.
Sanitizer
(3.0-5.0 ppm) – Use our
Deluxe Bromine Kit
to add Bromine until
the proper level is achieved. Neglected hot tub water can breed bacteria and
algae causing bather discomfort, skin rashes, and/or irritation.
