The Importance of Good Water Chemistry
For your health and safety, it is imperative to have clean, clear, water. Water
maintenance will vary depending on many things like the quality of your water,
how often and how many people use your spa. The fundamental things to
consider when it comes to maintaining chemistry are filtration, sanitation, and
proper balance of chemicals and pH. Following a regular schedule will help you
achieve acceptable water. It is important to remember that bacteria and viruses
grow quickly in water that is not properly maintained. Maintaining your water in
proper balance is necessary not only for proper sanitation, but it ensures minimal
buildup of deposits and prolongs the life of the spa.
One of the leading causes of spa service
is that water chemistry is
not correctly balanced. Too many chemicals will cause deterioration
of many of the components in the spa and the spa cover. Not enough
sanitation allows impurities to accumulate in the spa which hinders
its performance or even damages the filtration system. Water can become
unhealthy if chemicals are not used to sanitize water. Improper pH or calcium
levels can lead to corrosion and scale build up on integral spa components.
The following guidelines have been established by the Association of Pool and
Spa Professionals:
pH 7.4 to 7.6
Free Chlorine 3.0 to 4.0 ppm
Free Bromine 2.0 to 4.0 ppm
Total Alkalinity 100 to 120 ppm
Calcium Hardness 150 to 250 ppm
Add chemicals only after the water temperature has reached
a minimum of 80ºF to prevent damage to the acrylic surface.
Remove the cover and the filter basket assembly. Press the Primary
Pump button to turn the pump on high. Carefully measure the
recommended amount of chemical in accordance with the instructions on the
label. Add chemicals through the filtration canister with the primary pump on
high speed, allowing water to circulate for a minimum of ten minutes with the
spa cover off. Never leave the spa unattended when the cover is off.
Use care not to splash chemicals onto your hands, into your eyes, onto the spa
cabinet, or on the acrylic surface of the spa. Replace the lid onto the chemical
container. After ten minutes, reduce the primary pump speed to low. Close and
lock the cover.
