RECOMMENDED MAINTAINANCE ROUTINE AND SAFETY INFORMATION.
DAILY Check the PH and Sanitiser levels using a test strip; always adjust the PH first using Sunspot PH+ or PH- to attain a PH of between 7.4 - 7.6. Adjust sanitiser accordingly either by placing Bromine tablets into the skimmer or adding chlorine granules in solution to the spa water. |

WEEKLY Add Spa Sparkle to keep spa water polished and sparkling
clean. |
|
MONTHLY Clean the spa filters using Cartridge Cleaner to keep your filter free of grease, grime and oil. |
|
PERIODICALLY Due to the build up of Total Dissolved Solids it is recommended that you fully drain the spa and refill with fresh water periodically to ensure that you bathe in constant fresh and pure water. How often you drain and refill the spa will very much depend on the spa's usage, however it is recommended at least every 8 weeks. |

OZONE GENERATOR Every Wizard Spaform Spa and many other models are fitted as standard with an Ozone Generator (If the bath you choose doesn't have an ozone generator as standard it may be fitted as an optional extra) . These state of the art units are a recent innovation and have been designed and fitted specifically to assist the chemical treatment of the spa. The Ozone unit helps to clean and purify the spa water making it sparkle and reducing the need for additional chemicals, saving maintenance, time and money as well as prolonging your equipment's life. Working in conjunction with the sanitiser the Ozone Generator makes your water feel softer, smell fresh and helps destroy algae, viruses and bacteria to ensure your hot tub water remains O' so Pure and Simple. |

WATER BALANCE It is important to maintain the balance of the water at all times to ensure water comfort, efficiency and protection of equipment. The main factors involved in balancing the water are: Sanitisation, pH, Alkalinity and Calcium hardness. SANITISATION Available in the form of Chlorine (liquid, granular and tablet form) or Bromine (tablet form). These sanitisers act to kill bacteria, micro-organisms and algae leaving the water clean and ready for use. PH LEVEL The pH levels range from 0 - 14 with 0 being very acidic and 14 being very alkali. The recommended pH level for hot tubs are between 7.4 and 7.6. This level can be adjusted using pH Plus or pH Minus. TOTAL ALKALINITY LEVEL Total Alkalinity refers to the mineral content of the water and is made up of carbonates, bicarbonates and hydroxides in spa water. Low total alkalinity can cause the pH to drift quite rapidly from one level to another leading to scale formation, corrosion of surfaces and discolouration of spa water. The recommended Total Alkalinity level for hot tubs is between 125 - 150mg/l. CALCIUM HARDNESS LEVEL The calcium hardness level of water will vary depending on where you live and where your water supply comes from. Low levels of calcium can lead to corrosion of equipment whereas high levels cause scaling of equipment thus reducing its efficiency. The ideal range for calcium hardness is 120 - 25mg/l. Calcium chloride and Water softener can be used to raise or lower the calcium level of your hot tub water.
