The spa is also known as a “hot tub” or a “Jacuzzi”. Hot tub tends to be what they are called in America and Jacuzzi is actually the name of the company that first introduced spas to the market.
Keeping your spa water clean and healthy is a lot more difficult than it is for a swimming pool and some of the chemicals needed for a spa are slightly different to those needed for a pool. The water in a spa is kept at a much higher temperature than a pool and there is a lot less volume, the two of these factors combine to make a great breeding ground for bacteria. The sanitiser chemical of choice for a spa is Bromine. This is because it works better at high water temperatures and is not so sensitive to the pH being out of balance. A spa can soon become cloudy so the next most popular spa chemical is Spa Sparkle. A dose of this in your spa will help the filter to remove the tiny particles making it cloudy. Spa No Foam is a spa chemical used to reduce the amount of foam that forms when the air jets of the spa are used. Spa No Scale is the spa chemical used to stop the insides of the spa from scaling up in hard water area. Spa Cartridge Cleaner does just what it says on the tub – you dilute it in water and soak your spa’s paper filter cartridges in it overnight. It removes all the greasy, fatty substances from the filter. It is very important to test your spa so you know the levels of sanitiser in the water. Test Strips are the most convenient way to test the spa water, the comparitor test kit takes longer to use but is a more accurate test for your spa water.
