CONCENTRATED CHLORINATING GRANULES - The minimum chlorine level in the spa
should be at least 2PPM (parts per million). Chlorine level should be tested frequently and
the chemical added to maintain a safe level of 2PPM. This type of chemical can be added
in quantities of 0.5 ounce per 500 gallons of spa water. Check the chlorine level at least
seven hours or more after adding to determine the full effect of the added chemical.
Liquid chlorine is not recommended.
ORGANIC POLYMERS - are used in various forms. These chemicals clear up cloudy or
dirty water appearance and prevent calcium deposits on the inside spa finish, plumbing
and heating equipment. Use as recommended by the manufacturer.
METAL GON - or its equivalent is a chemical that will prevent iron in the spa water from
staining the spa finish. This chemical is added to the spa water when the spa is filled for
the first time or when refilled. Use as recommended by the manufacturer.
SILICONE EMULSION - quickly and effectively disperses foam and is completely compati-
ble with the other chemicals listed. Use as recommended by the manufacturer.
SPA WATER - should be changed periodically, depending upon frequency of use and
other conditions that may affect water suitability. Typically 60 to 90 days is a satisfactory
interval under normal conditions. With heavy usage, the interval between water changing
should be less.
SPA FILTER CARTRIDGE - should be cleaned every 2 to 4 weeks depending on the fre-
quency of use. Rinse the filter cartridge with a pressure hose and re-install filter cartridge
in the filter housing. When changing spa water it is good practice to soak the filter car-
tridge in filter cleaner. The filter cleaner is specially made to remove accumulation of oils
and other contaminates which will ensure good, sanitary water and extended filter car-
tridge life.
ADDING CHEMICALS - to your spa water: Add to the center of the spa with the pump
and the air blower (bubbles) operating simultaneously. Make sure the water is heated.
Never add chemicals to cold water, as this will effect chemical action. Also, never add
chemicals directly into the skimmer.
Store all chemicals in a cool, dry place and in such a way as to prevent children and pets
from contacting.
