What sanitizers can I use in my hot tub?
What sanitizers can I use in my hot tub?
You can use chlorine, bromine, or a mineral sanitizer in your hot tub. Our preferred method is the Frog @ease Mineral Sanitization System, which provides a softer, low-maintenance water care solution while using up to 75% less chlorine. If you prefer traditional sanitizers, both bromine and chlorine are effective options for keeping your spa water clean and safe.
Do I need to use an oxidizer?
Do I need to use an oxidizer?
Yes! Every sanitizer must be accompanied by an oxidizer, which helps break down organic contaminants like body oils, lotions, and sweat that can cause cloudy water and odors. Regularly using an oxidizer like SpaGuard Enhanced Shock or SpaGuard Spa Shock-Oxidizer will help maintain clear and fresh water. Adding an oxidizer periodically is essential for overall water quality.
What's the best sanitizer — mineral, bromine, or chlorine?
What's the best sanitizer — mineral, bromine, or chlorine?
Our top recommendation is the Frog @ease Mineral Sanitization System, which offers an easy, low-maintenance way to keep your hot tub clean while using less chlorine. However, if you prefer a traditional sanitizer:
• Bromine is a good option for hot tubs that experience fluctuating temperatures and is less harsh on the skin and eyes.
• Chlorine is a powerful and fast-acting sanitizer but requires more frequent monitoring and adjustments to maintain proper levels.
How do I sanitize using bromine?
How do I sanitize using bromine?
To sanitize your hot tub with bromine, start by adding SpaGuard Brominating Concentrate or bromine tablets in a floater. Tablets dissolve slowly to provide continuous sanitation, while the concentrate can be used for quick adjustments. Regularly test your water and keep bromine levels between 3-5 ppm for optimal sanitation.
How do I sanitize using chlorine?
How do I sanitize using chlorine?
To sanitize your hot tub with chlorine, use SpaGuard Chlorinating Concentrate, which dissolves quickly and kills bacteria effectively. Add the recommended amount directly to the water and test levels frequently, keeping chlorine between 1-3 ppm. Regular shocking with SpaGuard Enhanced Shock will help maintain clean, clear water.
Can I use chlorine tablets in a hot tub or swim spa?
Can I use chlorine tablets in a hot tub or swim spa?
No. Chlorine tablets are made of trichlor, which can easily damage the acrylic surface of portable hot tubs and swim spas. Only use dichlor products approved for use in hot tubs such as Chlorinating Concentrate or Enhanced Shock.
