Enjoy your Spa with pride and confidence
Disinfecting your spa water means killing the harmful bacteria and keeping the water clean. Arctic Pure offers two types of disinfectant systems to choose from: Chlorine and Bromine. Both have their advantages. Also, choosing a Spa with an Ozonator such as Arctic's Peak Ozone will reduce the amount of chemicals required to keep your spa clean.

There are different types of chlorine treatments available to spa owners. Spa tabs are 90% available chlorine and offer a continual slow release or disinfectant. Tabs require a feeder or skimmer basket to dissolve. Boost granular chlorine dissolves completely and immediately for instant disinfection and does not alter the pH.

Bomine: There are two common types of bromine systems available. Organic bromine tablets and the two part Bromine tablets are convenient and require a skimmer basket or feeder to dispense the disinfectant. The two part bromine systems can be added directly and immediately to the spa. Make sure the bromine level is 3-5 PPM.

Sanitation Treatments:
  • Spa Tablets
  • Brommine Tablets
  • Boost
  • Peak Boost

Water Balance
Water balance is important to the overall performance of your spa. No spa's water conditions are exactly alike. The water source, location of the spa and frequency of use all effect the water balance. Unbalanced water can damage the equipment, make the water uncomfortable for the user, and decrease the effectiveness of the disinfectant. Total alkalinity, pH, and calcim hardness must be within the correct ranges to balance the water.

Simply, pH is a scale indicating whether spa water is basic, neutral or acidic. Spa water should be slightly basic with a reading of 7.2 - 7.6. A low pH (below 7.2) leads to corrosion of spa equipment and will irritate the skin of the bathers. Also, the sanitizer will dissipate more rapidly. A low pH can be corrected by adding Adjust Up.

A high pH (above 7.6) promotes scaling on heat exchange tubes, creats cloudy water, calcim deposits and reduces the effectiveness of disinfecting agents. A high pH can be corrected by adding Adjust Down.
