Read the Directions Carefully
1) Always add chemicals to water, never add water to chemicals.
2) Do not mix chemicals.
3) Store chemicals in a cool dry place - out of reach of children.
4) In case of contact or if chemical is swallowed, follow emergency advice on product label.
5) Do not smoke near chemicals. Keep the container closed when not in use.
Water Balance
Water balance is important to the overall performance of your spa. No 2 spa's water conditions are exactly
alike. The water source, location of the spa and frequency of use all effect the water balance. Unbalanced
water can damage the equipment, especially the heater element, make the water uncomfortable for the user,
and decrease the effectiveness of the disinfectant. Total alkalinity, pH, and calcium hardness must be within
the correct range to balance the water. Damage to equipment caused by improper water chemistry is not
covered by warranty.
pH
Simply pH is a scale indicating whether spa water is basic, neutral or acidic. Spa water should be slightly basic
7.2 to 7.6; 7.8 with an ozonator in operation. A low pH below 7.2 leads to corrosion of spa equipment and will
irritate the skin of the bathers. The sanitizer will dissipate more rapidly. A low pH can be corrected by adding a
pH Increaser.
Alkalinity
Total alkalinity is a measure of the alkaline in the water. They act as a pH buffer or a pH stabilizer preventing
large changes in the pH. The total alkalinity should be between 80 to 150 ppm; ideally 120 ppm. Tablet chlorine
and bromine tend to gradually lower the alkalinity level.
Low total alkalinity causes:
• the pH to wander
• corrosive water
• disinfectants to be ineffective
To raise the total alkalinity, add ALKA RISE.
High total alkalinity causes:
• cloudy water
• scale formation
To lower the total alkalinity, add a pH Reducer.
Calcium Hardness
Calcium hardness is the hardness present due to dissolved calcium. The desired range is 150 ppm to 280 ppm.
Low calcium hardness causes:
• corrosive water
• staining of spa
To correct this problem, add a Scale Preventative. (Do not fill the spa with soft water!)
