Maintaining Spa Water Quality
Chemical Safety
Read and follow all printed instructions listed on
bottles and packages. Failure to follow chemical di-
rections may result in serious injury, sickness, or
even death.
Add chemicals to the center of the spa with the
pump running. Make sure the water is heated. Never
add chemicals to cold water, as this will effect chemi-
cal action. Also, never add chemicals directly into the
skimmer.
WARNING!
Never add chemicals to your spa
while bathers are in the spa!
Do not exceed chemical dosages as
recommended on chemical bottles
and packages.
Never change chemical brands or
types without completely draining,
flushing and thoroughly cleaning the
spa and cover first.
WARNING!
Never mix chemicals together.
Do not allow chemicals to come in
contact with skin, eyes or clothing.
Remove and wash clothing that may
have been exposed to chemical contact prior
to wearing them again.
Inhaling or ingesting chemicals will
cause serious injury, sickness, or even
death.
Chemicals must be stored com-
pletely out of the reach of children in
an area that is well vented, cool, and
dry. Failure to provide a proper area for
chemical storage may result in serious injury,
sickness, fire explosion and even death. Do
not store your chemicals inside the equip-
ment area of your spa.
