Daily Hot tub Spa Maintenance
|
|
|
Spa water should filter
on low speed for at least 3 hours per
day.
|
|
|
Bromine Floater should
have Bromine Tablets in it and should
remain in the spa at all times, except
when you are using it.
|
|
|
Scumballs or Scumbugs
should remain in spa at all times, except
when you are using it. They absorb surface
oils and reduce “ring around the
spa” at the water line.
|
|
|
Ozonator (if equipped)
should operate on low speed at least 3
hours for every 12 hours. If using an
Ozonator, you should also use at least
2 - 3 Bromine Tablets in a Bromine Floater
as well.
