This was put together from one of our best customers who ownes a small sized tub with high usage. You may adjust this to fit your usage.

Every Week:

• Add 16 oz. of 3% hydrogen peroxide, poured into filter intake (once per week if lots of users that week) 1 every 2 weeks
• check pH: aim for 7.4 – 8.6; add 1-2 tbsp of: (a) Spa Up / pure baking soda to raise the pH or (b) Spa down /pure ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) to lower the pH; No need to be too aggressive here – see where tub is leveling out

 

Every 2 Weeks:

• WASH THE FILTER by spraying down filter with power hose first, then pouring 16 oz. of hydrogen peroxide directly onto filter, then cover filter in fresh water in a bucket – soak for 1-8 hours

 

Add Every Month:

• Add 1 large capful of Spa Perfect
• WASH THE FILTER by spraying down filter with power hose first, then pouring 16 oz. of hydrogen peroxide directly onto filter, then cover filter in fresh water in a bucket – soak for 1-2 hours
• Soak clean filters in 1 capful Spa Perfect in a bucket of warm water to remove body oils leave for 2-3 hours. Hose off with fresh water. Place back in your tub.

 

ON OCCASSION if cloudy water, or after heavy user load:

• Remove mineral bag and leave in a bucket of fresh water
• Add 2 tbsp of Non- chlorine Shock (monopersulfate – MPS) into tub and run a 20 min. cycle of the jets with the cover off
• Replace mineral bag into tub AFTERWARDS
• Add one capful of Spa Perfect the next day (always on a different day than shock) if needed
• CLEAN FILTER after the shock treatment and Spa Perfect done the next day
• WASH THE FILTER monthly(within a couple of days of Shock/Spa Perfect) by spraying down filter with power hose first, then pouring 16 oz. of hydrogen peroxide directly onto filter, then cover filter in fresh water in a bucket – soak for 1-8 hours, then let it dry; leave in storage bin for next filter change

 

EVERY 3-4 months (depending on how water is looking)

• Remove mineral bag and soak overnight (12-24 hours) in 5 gallons of fresh WARM water with 1/2 cup of Ancient Sea salt and 2 tbsp of baking soda
• UNPLUG then drain the tub
• SCRUB INSIDE of tub, jets, and spa cover with Hydrogen peroxide, then rinse well with fresh water
• Fill tub with fresh cold water (IMPORTANT: by placing hose directly into empty filter hole to fill), add 1 cup of Ancient sea salt, Put in a clean filter
• Plug in power to tub then 32 oz. of hydrogen peroxide, run the jets for 20 min to mix well. The heater will kick in after this cycle, set circulation mode (see manual on how to do this –use the 3 times per day, 2 hour heating mode – i.e.,)

• Place mineral bag into bottom of tub when temperature reaches at least 94 degrees (most tub takes just under 24 hour to reach 104 degrees)
• Enjoy the fresh clear water again! J
