Super Chlorination:
Super chlorination quickly oxidizes the spa water to burn away waste such as hairspray and lotions that the spa
filter cannot remove. This waste build-up reduces the power of the sanitizer resulting in dull water and may cause
irritation to the user’s eyes and skin. It may also produce an ineffective sanitizer. Super chlorination can
eliminate this occurrence. To produce an adequate super chlorination, apply 5 times the normal chlorine dosage.
Stain & Scale inhibitor (Controlling Stain & Scale)
Due to hot water conditions, staining and scaling may become a problem. Water circulation can cause the erosion
of metals from spa equipment and create a stained surface. A weekly dose of a stain and scale fighter will help.
To eliminate metals in your water and increase the life of your spa equipment, add a sequestering agent to the spa
water when draining or refilling the spa for the first time.
Total Alkalinity:
Total alkalinity (TA) is the amount of carbonate, bicarbonate and hydroxyl ions in the water. TA (total alkalinity)
affects and protects the PH of water. Proper TA levels allow other chemicals to work more effectively. Water with
a TA above 160, makes it difficult to adjust the pH. With a TA below 130 the PH is unstable and difficult to
maintain at proper levels.
Foam Inhibitor:
Rapid circulation of spa water combined with soap residue from the user may cause foaming in your spa. Foam
inhibitors cannot remove the soap but will control foam in the water. A shock treatment can oxidize soap in the
water and help prevent foaming. If foaming remains an issue, change the water. Consult the foam inhibitor
container for directions.
When adding chemicals to your spa water, ad to the center of the spa with the pump and air blower (bubbles)
operating simultaneously. Never add chemicals directly into the skimmer. To ensure no chemical reaction, only
add chemicals to heated water. Never add chemicals to cold water.
Store all chemicals in a cool, dry place and out of reach of children or pets.
Consult your authorized spa dealer prior to any chemical use.
