Spa Chemicals

Your spa is designed to give many years of relaxing enjoyment. All that is needed is to carry out some simple tests, follow these guidelines and use the Fi-Clor range of chemicals.

These are required in order to kill off bacteria that may otherwise lead to cross infection, to keep the water comfortable for those using the spa and keep it crystal clear and inviting.

Your spa supplier will fill the spa and chemically treat it on installation. Periodically, every 2–3 months depending on usage, it will be necessary to drain your spa and refill it with fresh water. After refilling it is a good idea to raise the sanitiser level to 5mg/l and hold it there for 24 hours before either using the spa or operating the jets.

Test the spa water at frequent intervals (at least daily for privately owned spas, every few hours for spas open to the public) using test strips or a test kit. Knowing the volume of your spa, treat as necessary in accordance with the guidelines on the containers themselves to balance the relevant levels - Chlorine (3-5ppm), Bromine (3-5ppm), pH (7.2-7.6), Total Alkalinity (100-200 mg/l).
