When you enter your spa, you bring in as much contamination as 50 people would in a normal size swimming pool!Because your spa is such a small, enclosed environment, it needs to be a sanitary place. We accomplish this with a simple three step process: 1) Balance 2) Filtration 3) Sanitation The water that comes from your tap at home is fine for showers or bathing, because it is drained immediately after use. Hot water is a breeding ground for bacteria, so sanitizing becomes necessary, as well as maintaining a specific mineral balance. Having that mineral balance in place ensures that the water, which is naturally corrosive to metal, will not cause damage to the spa equipment. WARNING: Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. WARNING: Please be careful with chemicals - damage to the surface of the spa can occur due to the improper use of chemicals such as trichlor or chlorine, chemical tablets, acids or spa cleaners. Improper water chemistry balance can damage the spa and invalidate your warranty. Filling Spa With Water When filling the spa, use 2 ounces of SODIUM BROMIDE to create a bromide reserve. When using BROMINATING TABLETS, 2 ounces will treat up to 500 gallons of water. per 500 gallons). - 22 - Keeping Your Spa Water Clean & Fresh Once the spa has been filled to the correct level and pumps are primed and running add: 1) STAIN & SCALE REMOVER- This prevents staining, rust and corrosion, caused by metals in the source water. 3) CALCIUM BOOSTER (If Needed) - Calcium booster treats the water if low calcium hardness is a problem in your area. It will help prevent equipment corrosion and foaming by raising the spa's water hardness level to an acceptable range of 120 ppm. 4) pH STABILIZER - It will properly adjust and hold the pH for up to 3 months Water Testing Your Dynasty dealer is equipped to perform a thorough analysis of your spa water. Take a one liter sample to the store and they will advise you on the products necessary to properly balance and care for your spa.
