TESTING SPA WATER

Test tablets and solution are available from Enviro Spa

TO BALANCE THE WATER, TEST SPA MID WEEK

  • Rinse and fill both cylinders with spa water.
  • Place 5 drops of PHENOL RED solution into the cylinder marked pH, replace the lid.
  • Drop test tablet marked ‘Hydrogen Peroxide LR’ in the other test cylinder.
  • Replace lid and shake, wait until Booster tablet has completely dissolved.

pH TEST:

  • If reading is below ‘Ideal’ 7.6, add pH Raiser – 2 x 30ml measure cups per 1,000 litres.
  • Retest pH the following day and if it hasn’t risen enough, add another dose of pH Raiser.

BOOSTER TEST:

  • When the tablet has dissolved, the sample will slowly turn pink if Booster is present.
  • If the test colour is light pink, add a normal dose of Booster (see blue Weekly Dosage card for amount according to spa water volume).
  • If the test is clear, add a DOUBLE dose of Booster. This will drop the pH, so add a single dose of pH Raiser according to the dose rate for your spa water volume.
  • The Booster test colour needs to be maintained at dark pink (5) to prevent cloudy water.

Most spas require a twice weekly dose of BOOSTER powder.
