High pH levels (over 7.6) can cause the following:
Scale build-up on the spa and its equipment, cloudy
water, a prematurely dirty filter, and less effective
chlorine sanitation. To correct high pH levels, add a pH
DECREASER.
Low pH levels (under 7.4) can cause the following:
Discomfort to the spa user and corrosion to the spa and
its equipment. To correct low pH levels, add a pH
INCREASER.
Note: Never use muriatic or hydrochloric acid to adjust
pH as it can damage your spa shell and surroundings.
4. Total Alkalinity (TA): Total Alkalinity (TA) is the
measure of carbonates and bicarbonates in the water.
Low TA can cause pH to be unstable, bouncing from
one level to another, causing the water to be corrosive
or scale forming to the spa and its equipment. To
correct low TA, add a TOTAL ALKALINITY INCREASER.
High TA can cause scale build-up, cloudy water, as well
as other pH problems.To correct high TA, contact your
authorized Bullfrog Portable Spa Dealer.
5. Calcium Hardness (CH): Calcium Hardness (CH) is
the measure of dissolved calcium in the water. Low CH
(soft water) can result in staining to the spa's surface as
well as corrosion to the spa and its equipment. To
correct low CH, add a CALCIUM HARDNESS INCREASER.
High CH (hard water) can cause cloudy water as well as
rough scale build-up on the spa's surface and
equipment. To correct or manage high CH, contact your
authorized Bullfrog Portable Spa Dealer.
6. Stain & Scale Control: Stain and scale problems are
common in hot water environments. To help prevent
and control staining and scaling, add a STAIN & SCALE
INHIBITOR.
7. Foam Control: Spa water that's polluted with body
oils and lotions, combined with high water
temperatures, can cause excessive surface foaming. To
prevent and control foam on the surface of the spa
water, add a FOAM REMOVER.
8. Clearing Cloudy Water: There are two basic reasons
that spa water becomes cloudy. First, non-filterable
liquid wastes (perspiration, etc.) have contaminated the
water. To remove these waste substances, Super-
Sanitize the water (as described above). Second, non-
filterable micro-particulate wastes (dust, etc.) have
contaminated the water. To remove these wastes
substances, use a WATER CLARIFIER.
Note: Names of spa chemicals will vary from one
manufacturer to another. Please consult your
authorized Bullfrog Portable Spa Dealer if you have
questions.
STARTING YOUR SPA WITH NEW WATER:
1. As your spa fills with tap water , add the prescribed
dose of a STAIN & SCALE INHIBITOR. This will provide
the initial protection against staining and scaling.
Note: Do not use soft water unless the mineral content
is raised immediately.
