Maintain a total alkalinity level of 80 to 120 ppm.Total alkalinity is the measure of alkaline buffers in your water. These buffers protectthe water against sudden changes in pH. Total alkalinity is considered the key to waterbalance.When the total alkalinity is too low, add sodium bicarbonate. If the total alkalinity is toohigh, you can lower it by using muriatic acid or sodium bisulfate.Acid Alkaline Balance (pH)Test the pH of your spa water with a good quality test kit. Maintain a pH level of 7.2 to7.8.A balanced pH promotes bathing comfort and prevents corrosion, staining, scaling, orcloudy water.If the measured pH is too low, add soda ash to the spa water. If the pH is too high, addsodium bisulfate to the spa water. Follow the directions on the manufacturer’s labeland make small changes. Circulate the water for 20 minutes before retesting. |
