If you have an acrylic or berglass spa, it is best to

protect the nish with Fast Gloss before adding any

water. This will help reduce fading from UV rays or any

reactions on the spa surface from chemicals.

Fill your spa half way up the skimmer. If you’re using a

garden hose to ll the spa, remember to run the water

for several minutes to ush out any bacteria that might

have accumulated in the residual water of the hose.

As you ll the spa, add one bottle of Metal Gon. This is

a sequestering agent that will prevent minerals such as

calcium, iron, copper and manganese from staining the

spa surface or damaging the heater and plumbing.

NOTE: If you are using the Leisure Time Free® Sanitizing System, add

Control instead of Metal Gon.

Before lling your spa or hot tub, you should have your source

water either tested professionally or by using Leisure Time®

Spa & Hot Tub Test Strips. It’s also important to test your

water regularly using test strips. By keeping your spa water

balanced, you will avoid many problems that can occur with

spa water. The three most important factors in balancing spa

water are total alkalinity, pH and calcium hardness.

Proper treatment
