Balancers:
Water Balance, is important to the performance of your sanitizer, pH, alkalinity and calcium balancers are used to bring spa water into the desired range. Test Strips are more than adequate for your backyard pool or spa.

pH:	7.2 - 7.6
Total Alkalinity:	80 - 150 ppm
Calcium Hardness:	150 - 280 ppm

Sanitizers:
Hot water is an environment for breeding bacteria, so various disinfecting methods. Bromine tablets, Chlorines: Granular or Tablet, Lithium and the two part Bromine Systems are used.

Stabilized Chlorine has a stronger odour but is a very effective sanitizer, available in tablet or granular form. Bromine is less irritating to the skin, eyes and nose, also an effective sanitizer in a combined form.

Specialty Products:
unique hot water specialty chemicals to correct and prevent water problems that may occur.

PROBLEM	POSSIBLE CAUSE	SOLUTION
CLOUDY WATER	A) Organic contaminants build up B) Suspended particles C) pH high D) Total alkalinity too high E) Hardness too high F) Poor filtration G) High dissolved solids	A) Shock treatment and SPA SHOCK, add Descummer B) Add SPA CLEAR, use SPA-BALL C) Add pH REDUCER until pH level reads 7.2-7.6 D) Add pH REDUCER; adjust total alkalinity to 80-150 p.p.m. E) Add PREVENT II, circulate through a water softener until hardness is 150-280 p.p.m. F) Dirty filer, clean with CARTRIDGE CLEANER G) empty spa and refill
COLOURED WATER	A) Dissolved copper, iron and other Metals from source water or equipment B) Algae C) Fragrance	A) Use PREVENT II. Have your dealer check water balance. B) Add non-foaming ALGAEC1DE C) Stop the use of fragrance
FOAMING	A) High concentration of oils and organic contaminants being agitated by jets B) Soft water	A) Squirt DEFOAMER on foam. Use the SPA-BALL or add Descummer B) Add CAL RISE until hardness is 150-280 p.p.m.
SCALE DEPOSITS	High calcium level, high pH, high alkalinity	Drain partially, add PREVENT II, correct pH level to 7.2-7.6 and alkalinity to 80-150 p.p.m.
ODOUR	High level of organic contaminants combined chlorine	Shock with SPA SHOCK, add Descummer
EYE/SKIN IRRITATION	A) pH too tow B) combined chlorine due to high concentration or organic contaminants	A) add pH BOOSTER until level is 7.2-7.6 B) shock with SPA SHOCK, add CHLOR-AID, SPA-TABS or LITHIUM
NO CHLORINE/ BROMINE READING	A) high concentration of organic contaminants using up sanitizers B) test reagents may be ineffective	A) add sanitizers until levels are up to recommended range B) replace at least once a year, keep cool and out of sunlight
