1.Balancing the Alkalinity – Recommended level is between 80 and 120 ppm.
To increase the Alkalinity, add ‘Alkalinity Up’ at the following rates:
| Desired Increase | 1000 Litres in Spa |
| 30 | 50 grams |
| 60 | 100 grams |
Once added leave in spa for 1/4hr and retest and make sure correct.
2.Balancing the pH – Recommended level between 7.2 and 7.8.
To decrease pH add ‘pH Decrease’, To increase pH add ‘pH Increase’ at the following rates:
| Desired Increase or Decrease for PH Level | 1000 Litres in Spa |
| 0.1 | 5 grams = 1 teaspoon |
| 0.8 | 40 grams = 8 teaspoons |
Once added leave in spa for 1/2hr and retest and make sure correct.
3.Chlorine: recommended level is between 3 -5 ppm
Start-up – Add 2 teaspoons of ‘Super Chlor’
Normal use – Add one teaspoon per person after each use
Once a week – Test that the correct chlorine level has been reached
- For pools with ozone, always check the chlorine indicator on the test strip within 10 mins of adding as ozone eats up the testability of chlorine and if checked 2 hours later an incorrect reading will occur.
- When the stabilizer indicator on the bottom of the test strip reads between 150-300 it is time to change your water.
Regular Maintenance Guide
- Once a week test water for all chemicals.
- Fortnightly take filter out and hose down using high pressure then soak in ‘Cartridge Cleaner’ 150mls per Filter Bucket for 24 hours.
- Approximately every 3 months drain the pool.
- Remember this is a guideline and varies per pool size, model and personal use.
