WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE START-UP

Step 1: Your spa should be filled using a Pre-filter, which can be obtained from your local

dealer. This Pre-filter will help remove many of the minerals existing in the water,

which will make adjusting the water balance easier after a new fill.

Step 2: During the initial filling of the spa, add a sequestering agent to combat suspend-

ed minerals in the water. The agents are sold under many different names such as

Mineral Clear, Stain and Scale, and other brands.

Step 3: Test water for pH, total Alkalinity, and Calcium hardness. The pH should be 7.2 -

7.8 and the total Alkalinity 80-150 PPM. Calcium hardness levels should be main-

tained between 150 and 250 PPM (part per million).

Step 4: Adjust pH, total Alkalinity (TA) and Calcium hardness utilizing the directions on

the chemical bottles provided by your dealers start up kit.

Step 5: It may be necessary to retest and add additional chemicals to get to the proper

levels in Step 3.

Step 6: Add sanitizer. It is important not to add sanitizer until the pH, alkalinity and cal-

cium hardness have been adjusted to their proper levels.
