IMPORTANT: Do not use chlorine tablets (Trichlor) in your hot tub. This
chemical can have an extremely corrosive effect on certain materials in
the hot tub. Damage caused by use of this chemical, or improper use of
any chemicals, is not covered under the hot tub's warranty.
12 .3 Other Additives
Many other additives are available for your hot tub. 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
Sundance Dealer can advise you on the use of these additives.
12.4 Optional SunZone
TM
Water Maintenance System
If you have elected to have your hot tub equipped with the optional
Sundance SunZone
TM
UV or SunZone
TM
CD 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 hot tub drainings.
12 .5 Handrail Maintenance
The handrails in your Sundance spa are manufactured from a high quality
316 stainless steel alloy. Many people are familiar with the term “stainless
steel” and are surprised to learn that it does indeed rust and corrode in the
presence of chloride salts, free chlorine, or sulfide gasses. The bad news is
the environments that produce these elements are ocean spray, salted high-
ways, chemical treatments added to swimming pools and spas, and ground
water in numerous coastal areas. The good news is with proper care, your
spa’s handrails can maintain their original finish.
If your stainless handrails shows signs of rusting you should:
•Wash with fresh water (a good detergent won’t hurt).
• Clean with a good car chrome polish.
•Wax with an automotive or fiberglass wax.
You should never:
• Clean with chlorinated cleaners or scouring powders.
• Use sand paper, “Scotch Brite”, Brillo pads, or similar abrasive products.
•Clean with muratic or hydrochloric acids. Vinegar is ok, but it won’t do
much to remove rust.
