WATER CARE

Cleaning Your Swim Spa Water

You need to keep your swim spa clean and ready to use. When you enter your swim spa, you bring

in as much contamination as 50 people would in a normal size swimming pool! Because your swim

spa is such a small, enclosed environment, it needs to be a sanitary place. We accomplish this with

a simple three step process:

The water that comes from your tap at home is ne for showers or bathing, because it is drained im-

mediately after use. In a swim spa, your water is used for up to three months. Hot water is a breed-

ing ground for bacteria, so sanitizing becomes necessary, as well as maintaining a specic mineral

balance. Having that mineral balance in place ensures that the water, which is naturally corrosive to

metal, will not cause damage to the swim spa equipment. We recommend weekly water testing.

WARNING: Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.

WARNING: Please be careful with chemicals - damage to the surface of the swim spa

can occur due to the improper use of chemicals such as trichlor or chlorine, chemical

tablets, acids or swim spa cleaners. Do not let undissolved chemicals lie on the surface

of the swim spa. Damage from chemical misuse is not covered under warranty. Improper

water chemistry balance can damage the swim spa surfaces and/or equipment, and is

not covered under your warranty.

Filling Swim Spa With Water

When lling the swim spa, use 2 ounces of SODIUM BROMIDE to create a bromide reserve. When

using BROMINATING TABLETS in a oating dispenser, two to three tablets will treat up to 500 gal-

lons (1893 Liters) of water. For a chlorine system, use CHLORINATING GRANULES (1/2 oz. per

500 gallons) (1893 Liters).

Once the swim spa has been lled to the correct level and pumps are primed and running add:

Water Testing

Your Swim spa Dealer is equipped to perform a thorough analysis of your swim spa water. Take a

one liter sample to the store and they will advise you on the products necessary to properly balance

and care for your swim spa. Unbalanced swim spa water can quickly damage your equipment. Your

Swim spa Dealer will advise you on how to protect your investment.

STAIN & SCALE REMOVER- This prevents staining, rust and corrosion, caused by metals in

the source water. One bottle will treat up to 500 gallons for up to 3 months.

CALCIUM BOOSTER (If Needed) - Calcium booster treats the water if low calcium hardness

is a problem in your area. It will help prevent equipment corrosion and foaming by raising the

swim spa’s water hardness level to an acceptable range of 120 ppm.

pH STABILIZER - It will properly adjust and hold the pH for up to 3 months.
