TION OF 7.2 to 7.8. Problems become proportionately severe the fur-
ther outside of this range the water gets. A low pH will be corrosive to
metals in the spa equipment. A high pH will cause minerals to deposit
on the interior surface (scaling).
In addition, the ability of the sanitation agents to keep the spa clean is
severely affected as the pH moves beyond the ideal range. That is why
almost all spa water test kits contain a measure for pH as well as the
sanitizer.
13.2 Sanitizing
To destroy bacteria and organic compounds in the spa water, a sanitizer
must be used regularly. Chlorine and bromine are the two most popular
sanitizers used to date. Many other additives are available for your spa.
Some are necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water, some aid
in cosmetic water treatment and others simply alter the feel or smell of
the water. Your authorized Jacuzzi dealer can advise you on the use of
these additives.
CAUTION: Do not use chlorine tablets (trichlor) in your spa.
This chemical can have an extremely corrosive effect on
certain materials in the spa. Damage caused by use of this
chemical, or improper use of any chemicals, is not covered
under the spa’s warranty.
13.3 Optional CD Ozone Water Maintenance System
If you have elected to have your spa equipped with the optional Jacuzzi
CD ozone water purification system you will find that your water stays
fresh and clear with significantly less chemical sanitizer usage. You will
also probably be able to go longer between complete spa drainings.
The CD ozone unit operates in conjunction with low speed jets pump
#1.
