Bromine Generator Clear Water Plan
This plan and its chemical dosages are intended for spas equipped with the optional Cal Clarity Automatic Bromine
Generator. The chemical references are designed for Cal Spas chemicals only. Note: Following these instructions
is very important to ensure proper operation of your Cal Clarity Automatic Bromine Generator.
Start Up
Clean surface of spa with Cal Spas “Multi-
Purpose Cleaner”.
Apply a protective coat of Cal Spas “Fast
Sheen” to the acrylic surface.
Fill spa to proper water level with normal
tap water. (Do not use soft water.)
Use bromine test strip and balance the spa
water:
Adjust total alkalinity (acceptable range
is 80 to 120 ppm),
Adjust pH if necessary (between 7.2 to
7.8).
Pour in 16 oz of Cal Spas “Metal Protector”
in the center of spa.
Test for TDS (total dissolved solids).
The ideal range is 50 to 300 ppm.
TDS must be less than 500 ppm to start with.
Phosphate level should be below 200 ppb. Remove phosphates if necessary.
Determine the gallon capacity of the spa. Be accurate, because this determines the amount of TRU BLU that
will be added. Consult the Cal Spas Pre-delivery Guide for spa gallons.
Power up the spa and make sure all the spa’s pumps are set to high speed. Turn the dial on the face of the Cal
Clarity Bromine Generator to OFF.
Sprinkle evenly over the surface of the spa one 2lb bottle of TRU BLU sodium bromide per 100 US gallons (370
liters) of water. Do not add too much!
Note: Each bottle of TRU BLU will raise TDS / conductivity amount approximately 500 ppm.
Allow spa to run for 15 minutes so the TRU BLU can dissolve completely before proceeding to the next step.
