Spa Pool Maintenance

Circulation.

Correct circulation will help prevent bacteria and other contaminants from becoming a problem. As the water circulates it passes through the filter, trapping suspended particles.
Circulation also helps to evenly distribute BioGuard® SPA products.

Improve circulation by:

• Running your spa's circulation system every day
• Checking your spa manual to see how long your circulation system should run for, or asking us for advice
• Making sure circulation pumps are always in good working order.

Filtration

Many spa problems are caused by poor filtration. A filter operating correctly helps keep the water clean by capturing the hair, oils, and cosmetics washed off by people using the spa.

When the filter is dirty or clogged, all this debris remains in the water. Ideally you should clean the filter every 4 to 6 weeks.

Improve filtration by:

• Checking your filter manual to find out how to remove the filter cartridge
• Rinsing the filter cartridge to remove loose debris using a garden hose or suitable alternative depending on water restrictions
• Using BioGuard® SPA Renew every time you clean your filter. This will dissolve and loosen the built-up oil, dirt and scale deposits
• Thoroughly rinsing the cartridge again and leaving to dry
• Returning the clean cartridge to the filter housing.

It is also a good idea to check the manual, or ask us how often the filter should be replaced.
To improve filter efficiency, use BioGuard® SPA Crystal Clear once a week. It joins tiny particles of debris together, allowing the filter to remove them and keep the water clean.

2. Once the spa is filled, start equipment following manufacturer's directions. Apply BioGuard® SPA Crystal Clear and allow the water to circulate for about five minutes.

3. If using either the Perfect Balance Method or Mineral Balance Method, follow the recommendations on your computerised water analysis from Splash Water. These recommendations are personalised for your water and spa. Use either BioGuard® SPA Perfect Balance, or the correct Mineral Balancing chemicals. Be sure to wait the indicated time between the addition of balancing products.

4. Allow the water to circulate for approximately 30 minutes, then add BioGuard® SPA Purity to initially oxidise the water. BioGuard® SPA Armour or Chlorinated Concentrate can also be used to oxidise the water.

5. Add the initial dose of your preferred Spa Care Sanitiser as detailed in start up directions on label.

6. Once you have established a bromine residual of 4 - 6 ppm, or chlorine residual of 2 - 3 ppm, apply Natural Chemistry Spa Perfect.
