Water Chemistry Basics

In short, more water used by more people

 for more hours means more 

chemicals.  Whether you use the spa or not, you should test your water twice 

a week.  Regularly testing water allows you to make adjustments before levels 

are out of control.  When it comes to chemicals, more is not better.  Adding 

chemicals changes the pH, changes in the pH changes the way the chemicals 

react.  The addition of too many chemicals makes the problem worse making 

your only option to drain the spa and start over.  

Ozone Generators

 

Your spa may have come with an optional ozonator which will do a good job 

at killing bacteria and oxygenating water, but it will not sanitize the water.  You 

must use bromine in tandem with the Ozone generator.  The Ozone generator 

is designed to make chemicals more efficient and water chemistry maintenance 

easier.  Ozone is a gas that oxidizes contaminants and disinfects bacteria.  The 

ozone generator injects ozone while the water is in the plumbing before it comes 

through the jets and into the spa.

Chlorine Generators

Your spa may have come with an optional salt system, also known as a chlorine 

generator.  This system is designed to maintain water chemistry by converting 

salt into the sanitizer without the use of bromine and shock.  Since the system 

does not create any residual chlorine, water testing will not provide an accurate 

assessment of sanitation levels.  Test strips should be used to maintain adequate 
levels of alkalinity, pH and water hardness. 

 

DO:

Wash your hands after handling chemicals.

  In case of accidental contact, 

follow the emergency advice on the product label.  If a doctor is needed, take 

chemical containers with you to the hospital so the substances can be identified.

Clean up spilled chemicals immediately using water from a water hose.  Saturate 

the surrounding area thoroughly, especially areas used by children and pets to 

ensure safety.

Keep chemicals in their original container 

with the lid replaced properly after 

using.  Keep chemicals closed when not in use..

Keep chemicals away from children and pets.

  Allow a responsible person to 

handle spa chemicals; use care when handling chemicals.  

Store chemicals in a cool, dry, well ventilated place.

Don’t:

Add chemicals when the water temperature is below 80ºF

Smoke when adding chemicals.  

Some of the chemicals used to maintain water 

chemistry are highly flammable and smoking while adding chemicals can lead to 

serious injury.

Store chemicals in the spa cabinet 

or anywhere they are exposed to extreme
