Use and Care Manual

Introduction

Welcome to the Spa Breeze™ line of spa maintenance chemicals.

The maintenance of your new spa can be confusing. This is why Spa

Breeze has created the weekly, simple-to-follow M-W-F Spa

Maintenance Program. Following this program will help to keep your

spa trouble-free.

There are a few things that Spa Breeze would like you to remember

about spas before you begin. Though spas have been thought of as

miniature swimming pools, their care differs from pools in several ways.

The chemical balance of a swimming pool usually changes gradually,

whereas in a spa the same changes can happen instantly.

Three major reasons are:

●

The bather load in a spa is high. Four people in a 500-gallon

spa have about the same effect on the water chemistry as 200

people in a 20,000-gallon backyard swimming pool.

●

The usual water temperature in a spa ranges between 98 and

104 degrees F. At these high temperatures the water

evaporates at a rapid rate and leaves behind dissolved minerals

and salts, most commonly referred to as total dissolved solids

(TDS). TDS can hamper the work of the sanitizer and cause the

water to take on a dull cast. In a spa, people perspire at the rate

of approximately 1 pint for every 20 minutes. This adds to the

TDS level and also contributes to the organic contamination.

●

The water turn over rate is very rapid; together with aeration of

jets and blowers it causes the sanitizer to dissipate more quickly.

Spa Breeze™ M-W-F Spa Maintenance Program is intended for

residential customers only. Ask a spa professional for details on

chemical requirements for use in other applications.
