WATER CHEMISTRY

CAUTION: The chemicals used to maintain the pH balance of the

water and to sanitize the water can be dangerous. Always follow

these basic guidelines when handling the chemicals

1. Always read and follow the directions on the label, unless directed

otherwise.

2. Never mix different chemicals.

3. Do not exceed the recommended amounts of chemicals—follow the

directions on the label.

4. Keep all chemicals out of the reach of children and pets.

5. Keep containers closed tightly when not in use.

6. Never add water to the chemicals—always add the chemicals to the

water as directed.

7. Always store chemicals in a cool, dry place.

NOTE, Consult your dealer on local weter chemicals as its var-

ies from location to location.

WATER TREATMENT GLOSSARY

1 - Total Alkalinity: Total Alkalinity measures the water’s ability to re-

sist fluxuations in the pH level. It is measured in ppm (parts per million)

ranging from 0 - 400 or up. The optimum range for your spa water is

between 80 and 140. This can easily be measured with 3- or 5-way test

strips. With low alkalinity the pH level will be prone todramatic fluxua-

tions. With high alkalinity the pH becomes increasingly difficut to ad-

just.

2 - pH (potential hydrogen): The PH is used as a measurement of

the active acidity, the concentration of active hydrogen molecules in the

water. PH is measured on a scale from 1 to 14, the lower numbers

indicating a greater concentration of active hydrogen. While 7, halfway

between base and acid is neutral, the optimum level of acitity for a spa

is between 7.2 and 7.8.
