B. Watkins Manufacturing Corporation recommends the use of Sodium Dichlor type granulated chlorine for sanitizing the water.
Sodium Dichlor is preferred because it is totally soluble, dissolves quickly and is nearly pH neutral.
C. Maintaining the proper level of chlorine during use is extremely important.
D. If the FAC is too low, bacteria and viruses can grow rapidly in the warm water.
Increase the FAC by adding granulated Sodium
Dichlor.
E. If the FAC is too high, the water can cause discomfort to the user’s eyes, lungs and skin.
Simply allow some time to pass. The FAC
level will drop naturally over time.
F. When the Free Available Chlorine is within the recommended range, the spa is ready to be enjoyed.
WARNING:
There are several forms of stabilized chlorine available for use in spas and swimming pools and each form has specific
chemical characteristics. It is extremely important that the one you choose is specifically designed for use in spas. Use of an incorrect
product such as tri-chlor, which has a very low pH (2.6), dissolves too quickly in hot water resulting in extremely high levels of
chlorine, and is designed for concrete or plaster swimming pools, WILL cause damage to your spa. Use of a liquid or concentrated
form of sanitizer WILL damage your spa and is specifically not covered under the terms of the limited warranty.
IMPORTANT:
Granulated chlorine (Sodium Dichlor) will degrade if stored improperly. We recommend purchasing chlorine in one
or two pound containers and storing it in a cool, dry place to maintain its potency.

HLORINATION
Super Chlorination is designed to “burn-off” the build-up of chloramines (used chlorine), to eliminate the chlorine smell and to allow
the proper level of free chlorine to be maintained.
When giving your water a super chlorination treatment, open the cover at least half way for twenty minutes to allow the chlorine gas
to vent off. The high concentration of chlorine gas which may exist as a result of super chlorination (not daily sanitation) may
eventually cause discoloration or degradation to the bottom of the cover or the tile grouting, which would not be covered under the
terms of your warranty.
IMPORTANT:
Always allow the Free Available Chlorine to fall to 5 ppm before using the spa.
WARNING:
Never leave an open spa unattended, especially if there are children present!
