Balancing the Water

When initially filling or refilling your spa follow these

steps to achieve proper water balance.

Important! Always circulate the water for at

least 15 minutes after making any chemical

additions, before retesting water, or adding

any additional products.

1. Test the spa water using a Test Strip (see label

for easy dip and read directions).

2. Determine the pH and alkalinity level of the water

using the color comparison chart on the bottle.

3. If changes need to be made to the pH and/or

alkalinity level to put them within the recom-

mended range, always balance the alkalinity

before balancing the pH.

The product(s) you should use to adjust pH and/

or alkalinity are pH & Alkalinity Up or pH & Alkalin-

ity Down. Make any chemical additions per the

directions on the bottle and then test and repeat

if necessary until all readings are in the desired

range.

4. After pH and alkalinity levels are in the recom-

mended range, you can establish a sanitizer

residual of 0.5 ppm. Add one-half ounce of

Chlorine per 500 gallons of water. Test and

repeat if necessary until there is a 0.5 ppm

residual of sanitizer in the water.

Water characteristics vary depending on the

local water supply. You may need to “fine

tune” the spa water due to these variations.

Your dealer may suggest the use of the

following products when filling the spa based

on your water conditions.
