User Manual
Once you’ve determined the readings for pH, total alkalinity and calcium
hardness using Leisure Time® Spa & Hot Tub Test Strips, you will need
to adjust your water so that the levels fall within the normal ranges.
Testing your spa water regularly will make you aware of any changes in
water balance. If your spa water does not fall within the recommended
ranges and remains unbalanced, problems such as cloudy water, scaling,
equipment corrosion and skin irritation can occur.
Refer to the Problem Solver on page 15 if you are experiencing any of
these or other problems. You can also visit LeisureTimeSpa.com to nd
answers to your questions or use the online water analysis.

ADDING A SANITIZER
Using an effective sanitizer to control and prevent bacteria growth is
the most important start-up procedure in our program. Using a sanitizer
properly controls and prevents bacteria in your spa, which keeps the
water clean and fresh. No matter which sanitizing system you use, spa
water must be maintained at a sufcient sanitizer level to keep the water
clean. The following pages outline the application directions for each of
the sanitizers Leisure Time Spa offers.
• Leisure Time® Brom Tabs
• Leisure Time® Sodium
Bromide
• Leisure Time® Reserve
• Leisure Time® Spa 56
Chlorinating Granules
