pH! pH is a measure of whether something is acidic, basic, or neutral, and it is always measured on a
scale of 0 to 14. Everything has a pH value associated with it. A pH of 7.0 is neutral, a pH under 7.0 is
acidic, and a pH over 7.0 is basic.
Your spa’s pH is important for many reasons, and as such, it cannot be neglected without problems
occurring. On a spa, the pH should be kept in the following range:
!!! Recommended pH Range - 7.2 to 7.8
If the pH is not kept in the proper range, the spa owner may experience the following
problems:

The spa’s pH is important, but it is also fairly easy to test for and adjust. All swimming pool/spa test kits
should test for pH, and by now you’ve probably become familiar with how to use your test strips. Once
you have tested the water and obtained your results, you can make any needed adjustments to the pH.
If the pH of the water tests low, you will use WHITE RIVER LIQUID ph increase. As per the
manufacturer's directions, add this product while the pump is running. WHITE RIVER LIQUID pH
INCREASE should be added one ounce at a time. After a minimum of thirty minutes to an hour, retest the
pH and adjust further if needed.
If the pH of the water tests high, you will need to add white river liquid ph decrease. When adding
WHITE RIVER LIQUID pH DECREASE, it is recommended that you mix one ounce of pH decrease to
five gallons of water. This solution should then be added to the spa. The spa should be circulating. After
a minimum of thirty minutes to an hour, retest the pH and adjust further if needed.
