As well as the use of a pump and filter, lithium hypochlorite is used as a primary sanitizer. These are often supplemented with an ozone generator and silver and copper ion generator. It is important to speak to your spa supplier about suitable ways to santitize and maintain your spa, as each spa has different specific requirements.

To periodically remove anyforeign particles ,’shocking’ the spa is recommended. This can be done with a product called Spa-Lite or a large dose of granulated chlorine. The spa should not be used for a certain period of time after starting the shock treatment, typically 4 to  8 hours . This will prevent irritation to the skin and body, and ensure that the sanitation process is correctly performed.

Water chemistry maintenance involves keeping the pH, alkalinity and mps levels within acceptable margins. After  purchasing a spa, it is important to understand the chemistry side of maintaining your spa. One of our trained professionals will assist and run through everything that you need to know so that you acquire a knowledge and understanding of your spa. Problems with the water chemistry whether minor or major can disrupt your water balance or  may cause other problems with your spa.
