There are 2 primary components that affect spa water quality.
1. Sanitizer
2. pH
When both are within their recommended ranges:
• Your water is comfortable, protected and clear.
• Your sanitizers and "shock products" work efficiently.
• Your spa surfaces and equipment are protected.
1. Maintain sanitizer within the recommended levels:
Bromine residual = 2 - 6 ppm
Brominating Concentrate = 3-6 ppm
Brominating Tablets = 2-4 ppm
Chlorine residual = 3 - 5 ppm
(If your spa is equipped with an ozone generator, you may choose to maintain the chlorine or bromine at the lower end of their ranges.)
2. Maintain the pH between 7.4 - 7.6. In this range bathers are comfortable, the spa surface and equipment are protected, and the sanitizers perform efficiently.
Add SpaGuard® Spa Sentry™ to hold the pH in it’s optimum range. pH is THE most important aspect of spa water quality. However, maintaining the proper pH can be a challenge in a spa. The heated, aerated water, combined with heavy bather loads can cause the pH to change quickly, unless a means for buffering these changes is present. That’s where SpaGuard Spa Sentry comes in. Spa Sentry is formulated to "watch over" the pH and protect the water from pH changes. So all you have to worry about is enjoying your spa.
3. Test sanitizer and pH level several times a week with the test strips. These strips provide quick, easy and accurate readings. The test process is easy. Follow the label instructions. Simply dip and read.
4. Bring in a water sample regularly (every 4-6 weeks) for a complete water analysis from one of our trained professionals. In addition to testing the pH and sanitizer, this analysis will measure the water’s total alkalinity, calcium hardness, iron, copper, manganese and total dissolved solids. Based on this analysis, we can recommend the spa care products you need in order to keep the spa looking and feeling great!
