Using Chlorine as a Sanitizer

If you choose to use chlorine as a sanitizer, only use granulated chlorine, not liquid chlorine. We recommend 

you use only Cal Spas “Chlorinating Granules”.
Once a week, check the chlorine level using either a test strip or a reagent kit. See the table on the following 

page for the ideal range.
Add one or two tablespoons of Cal Spas “Chlorinating Granules” to the spa water weekly. Note that chlorine 

dissipation rate will be faster at higher water temperatures and slower at lower temperatures.

When you add chlorine, open all of the jets and run the spa at high speed with the cover open for at least 

30 minutes.
Follow the maintenance schedule on page page 17.

Sanitation

After you fill your spa, you need to decide which chemical sanitizer you wish to use. Consult your Cal Spas 

dealer for the right decision with regards to your lifestyle and spa usage.
We recommend either bromine or chlorine as your sanitizer. Both work well when maintained regularly.

DO NOT use trichlor . Trichlor is very acidic and the hot temperature of the spa causes it to 

dissolve too quickly . It will cause damage to your spa and will void your warranty .

Sanitizers kill bacteria and other organic waste by breaking them down to non-harmful levels and are filtered 

out.
Make sure you follow all instructions and use only Cal Spas brand chemicals.
Whichever plan you decide on, follow it completely and don’t take shortcuts. It will provide you with clean, 

safe, clear spa water with a minimum of effort. Spa owners with the ozonator still need to use a chemical 

sanitizer. See 

page 14

 for instructions.

Using Bromine as a Sanitizer

Bromine is a very effective sanitizer that produces low chemical odors. Unlike chlorine, it can break down 

bacteria and other impurities to a safe level with a low burn-out rate.
Bromine is available in both granulated and tablet form. Use granulated bromine to establish your bromine 

base. Use tablets to maintain it. The filter cartridge provided with your spa has an internal chamber for bro

-

mine tablets. Do not use a floater.
When you begin with fresh water, add 2 ounces of Cal Spas Go Brom. Open all of the jets and run the spa at 

high speed. This is your base bromine level as the tablets will take a while to dissolve.

Add two ounces of Oxidizer Shock. Open all of the jets and run on high speed with the cover half open for 

at least 30 minutes.
Follow the maintenance schedule on page page 17.
