Testing your hot tub water seems like a pretty easy thing to do especially with the awesome hot tub water test strips that are available today. You don\u2019t have to be a chemist anymore with drops of this and drops of that. You simply place the strip in the water and look at the colors to determine the ppm<\/strong> (parts per million) that you are testing. It\u2019s that easy.<\/img><\/p>\n

What are we looking for once we have those numbers and what do we do about it? These are the questions!<\/p>\n

One very important point about hot tub water chemistry is that once the water is too far gone, just drain it<\/strong> and fill it up again, it is not worth the fight. All you hot tub people know what I mean! Even if you have to unfreeze the hose it is still a better option than creating a cesspool of chemicals.<\/p>\n

There are four main items we need to check to keep your water balanced: Alkalinity, PH, Sanitizer, and Stabilizer.<\/p>\n

Alkalinity Level<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\n

<\/img><\/p>\n

Alkalinity booster<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The first key is Alkalinity, which should be 80 \u2013 120 ppm<\/strong>. Alkalinity is the most important test of the week. If your Alkalinity is off, nothing is stable, your oxidizer won\u2019t fire and your PH levels will swing like the best teenage mood.<\/p>\n

This is the base, the foundation of all your chemicals. Don\u2019t try and get your PH right or your oxidizer right before your Alkalinity.<\/strong> Nothing will work until your Alkalinity is in that 80 \u2013 120 ppm range. You can use The Cover Guy alkalinity booster to raise your alkalinity.<\/p>\n

PH Level<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\n

<\/img><\/p>\n

PH Down<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

<\/img><\/p>\n

PH Up<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Once we have our Alkalinity under control we want to make sure our PH\u00a0level is set between 7.2 to 7.8 ppm<\/strong>. This is simply adjusted with The Cover Guy PH Up or The Cover Guy PH Down.<\/p>\n

The PH levels are important for the operation of your oxidizers as well.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • A low PH level will wreck havoc on your skin and your hot tub parts because it becomes so acidic.<\/li>\n
  • The PH being too high, on the other hand, is no treat either making your oxidizer ineffective, your water cloudy, and irritating to skin as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Sanitizing Agents<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Let\u2019s look at our oxidizer: you can use either The Cover Guy Chlorine Kit or The Cover Guy Bromine Kit.<\/p>\n

    Which is better is debatable, but if you don\u2019t have sensitive skin, I would recommend sticking to the chlorine, but that is just my opinion.<\/p>\n

    \n

    TCG Chlorine Kit<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    You need to stay on top of this and make sure you have 1 \u2013 3 ppm of any sanitizer you are using<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    The role of this chemical is to kill and knock out bacteria growth in your hot tub<\/strong>. The outcome of not having a proper sanitizer level is not a nice thing for our skin and eyes. I like using the ongoing supply of tablets in my floater with a shock weekly or as needed.<\/p>\n

    Check out all of our chemical kits, including phosphate free options!<\/p>\n

    Stabilizer Level<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    The last thing you want to watch is your stabilizer levels. Once these are too high you have to change your water<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    They should not get too high within your three month water cycle but if they do you have to drain your hot tub<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Too much stabilizer will lock up your sanitizing agent and it won\u2019t work anymore, even if your agent is showing a high level which it will because it is not being fired into an oxidizer.<\/p>\n

    Conclusion<\/h3>\n

    Keeping your hot tub water healthy and safe to use is a fundamental necessity to being a hot tub owner. It doesn\u2019t have to be complicated as long as you maintain a regular checklist and are aware of when the water doesn\u2019t look or smell quite right.<\/p>\n

    Below are our three tips to live by:<\/p>\n

    3 Pro Tips<\/strong><\/h4>\n
      \n
    • Don\u2019t fight with your water<\/strong>. Change it if it\u2019s too far gone, but remember to change your water at least every three months.<\/li>\n
    • Start with the Alkalinity<\/strong>; that is your foundation.<\/li>\n
    • If your stabilizer is too high, you have to change your water<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Enjoy your hot tub!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
