Great Chemistry

> Make your spa water feel clean and comftable

> Kill Bacteria, which can multiply rapidly in a spa

> Protect spa surfaces from stains caused by metals

> Protect spa equipment from scale deposits or corrosion

Water Balance

Balancing the spa water after filling or refilling the spa is the key to making maintenance easy. Correct water balance provides the ideal conditions for chemicals to work effectively, to protect your spa finish and equipment and to ensure bather comfort.

Total Alkalinity
SpaGuard Balance Pak 100 will raise Total Alkalinity to the ideal level. Using Balance Pak 100 to maintain the correct Total Alkalinity will help to keep a more stable pH level, reduce the risk of staining and help protect the spa finish and support equipment.

Calcium Hardness

Low Calcium Hardness levels can lead to the damaging of the spa shell finish and equipment.
SpaGuard Balance Pak 300 will raise Calcium Hardness to an acceptable level. High levels of Calcium Hardness will cause scale formation leading to rough surfaces and dull and cloudy looking water.

pH

The pH scale has a range of 0 - 14, with 7.0 being neutral. Water with a pH below 7.0 is acidic and above 7.0 is alkaline or base. For spas, the ideal level is 7.5 which being slightly alkaline, protects the spa finish and equipment from corrosion and provides optimum bather comfort. A number of factors can affect the pH level of your spa water, such as dilution with fresh water, introduction of air, chemicals and algae, so it is important that it is checked on a regular basis.

SpaGuard Balance Pak 200 - is used to raise the pH when the level drops below the ideal range. SpaGuard Lo 'n' Slo - lowers the pH level when it raises above the ideal range.

Metals

Metals present in spa water can cause unsightly staining, this occurrence can easily be avoided with the use of SpaGuard Stain & Scale Control.

Sanitising

The SpaGuard goal is to ensure bather safety by maintaining 24-hour bacteria killing. This is essential in spas and hot tubs where high water temperatures provide the ideal environment for bacteria to develop and multiply if correct sanitiser levels are not maintained. To maintain the correct level there is a choice of chlorine and bromine based sanitisers.

Commisioning a New Spa
If your spa is new it is vital that you Super Chlorinate using SpaGuard Chlorinated Concentrate upon the first filling of your hot tub with water. The recommended level for this shock treatment is: 50mg/l for a period of 1 hour or 20mg/l for a period of 2 hours. Whilst the chlorine levels are high the water should be circulated. Before bathing commences ensure the chlorine level has reduced to the target level.

Chlorinated Concentrate

A traditional chlorine donor in granular form that is totally soluble and contains stabiliser to minimise chlorine loss to sunlight. SpaGuard Chlorinated Concentrate granules have a pH value close to neutral so they will have little effect to pH when added to your spa

Smart Tabs

SpaGuard Smart Tabs with SmartGuard are an economical and easy-to-use chlorine tablet that you apply directly to the hot tub via your skimmer or floating dispenser. They dissolve slowly and evenly to give consistent and long lasting chlorination with minimal effect on pH value.

Brominating Concentrate

This unique technology provides you with bromine in a convenient granular form, which makes application easy as it can be dosed directly into the spa water without having to pre-dissolve. Bromine is an effective sanitiser, which is not as pH sensitive as chlorine, and its reduced odour creates a pleasant bathing environment.

A double dose of SpaGuard Brominating Concentrate can also serve as a 'shock' treatment for badly contaminated spa water.

Brominating Tablets

SpaGuard Brominating Tabs - An effective bromine based sanitiser available in convenient tablet form. They are totally soluble to give clear, clean and safe water with less odour than chlorine - based products.

Oxidising

The importance of regularly oxidising your hot tub water cannot be overstated, because wastes that the filter cannot remove will accumulate from general usage and airborne pollution. Regular oxidisation will destroy these waste compounds, improve your bathing experience and promote better water clarity.

SpaGuard Spa Lite - Non-filterable wastes accumulate in spa water making it appear dull and lifeless, SpaGuard Spa Lite is a powerful oxidiser that restores water sparkle making it look more inviting. More than just an oxidiser it has built in clarifiers that work within the water helping the filter in removing suspended matter and therefore stopping it become a source of food that will encourage bacteria and algae to grow. SpaGuard Spa Lite will also destroy chloramines thus eliminating odours and stinging eyes. Another major benefit is that you can get back in the hot tub just 15 minutes after application, so no more having to wait for chlorine or bromine levels to drop and missing out on valuable bathing time.

Accessories

Within the range of SpaGuard, Accessories are products for cleaning the spa surfaces and filter cartridges. Ther are also products to improve water clarity and prevent unsightly foam from ever becoming a problem.

Filter cleaning

Keeping your hot tub filter clean is vitally important if good water quality is going to be achieved, and Filter Brite is the easiest and most effective way to clean your cartridge filter element. Supplied in a 100g sachet means application is simple. All you have to do add 1 x 100g sachet to a bucket containing 20 litres of water than immerse your cartridge element in the solution and leave it to soak overnight. Next morning rinse the cartridge element thoroughly and allow it to dry before returning it to the filter housing. Filter Brite will rid your cartridge element of scale, oils and greases and restores filter efficiency.

Surface Cleaning

Around the waterline, deposits of debris, oils and greases can accumulate providing the ideal breeding ground for bacteria and making the spa look uninviting. SpaGuard Surface Cleaner removes oils and greases improving the appearance of the hot tub and eliminating hidden microbes.

Being a non-abrasive formulation means that there is no risk of damage to your spa finish and the invisible shield that SpaGuard Surface Cleaner leaves behind means that there is less build up of waterline deposits in the future.

Water Clarifier

Concentrated and highly effective dual performance clarifier for superb clarity and water that sparkles. SpaGuard Polysheen can be used to restore water clarity in a problem spa or ideally used as a weekly treatment to maintain sparkling water and enhance your bathing experience.

Antifoaming Agent

Foam appearing on the water surface can be unsightly and can easily be remedied by using fast acting SpaGuard Antifoam
