KEEPING YOUR SPA WATER CLEAN & FRESH
Cleaning Your Spa Water
You need to keep your spa clean and ready to use. When you enter your spa, you bring in as much contamination as 50 people would in a normal size swimming pool! Because your spa is such a small, enclosed environment, it needs to be a sanitary place. We accomplish this with a simple three step process:
1)Balance
2)Filtration
3)Sanitation
The water that comes from your tap at home is fine for showers or bathing, because it is drained immediately after use. In a spa, your water is used for up to three months. Hot water is a breeding ground for bacteria, so sanitizing becomes necessary, as well as maintaining a specific mineral balance. Having that mineral balance in place ensures that the water, which is naturally corrosive to metal, will not cause damage to the spa equipment. We recommend monthly water testing.
WARNING!
WARNING: Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
WARNING!
WARNING: Please be careful with chemicals - damage to the surface of the spa can occur due to the improper use of chemicals such as trichlor or chlorine, chemical tablets, acids or spa cleaners. Do not let undissolved chemicals lie on the surface of the spa. Damage from chemical misuse is not covered under warranty. Improper water chemistry balance can damage the spa surfaces and/or equipment, and is not covered under your warranty.
Filling Spa With Water
When filling the spa, use 2 ounces of SODIUM BROMIDE to create a bromide reserve. When using BROMINATING TABLETS in a floating dispenser, two to three tablets will treat up to 500 gallons of water. For a chlorine system, use CHLORINATING GRANULES (1/2 oz. per 500 gallons).
