pH Minus for hot tubs is a chemical treatment designed to lower the pH levels in your hot tub water when they become too high. Proper pH balance is crucial for maintaining safe, clear, and comfortable water. When the pH is too high, it can cause several issues, including scale buildup, cloudy water, and discomfort for bathers. pH Minus helps you bring the pH levels back into the optimal range, ensuring that your hot tub remains in the best condition.
Prevents Scale Buildup: High pH levels can cause mineral deposits and scaling on the hot tub’s surfaces, filters, and equipment, leading to clogged pipes and decreased water flow. pH Minus helps maintain clear, clean water by preventing scale formation.
Protects Hot Tub Equipment: Excessively high pH can damage hot tub heaters, jets, and plumbing, as alkaline water is more corrosive. Using a pH reducer ensures your equipment stays in good condition and functions optimally.
Improves Bather Comfort: Water that is too alkaline can cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Maintaining the correct pH range ensures a comfortable soaking experience without skin irritation or burning eyes.
Optimizes Sanitiser Efficiency: Proper pH levels are critical for the effectiveness of chlorine or bromine sanitisers. When pH is too high, these sanitizers become less effective, potentially leading to unsanitary conditions in your hot tub. Lowering the pH with pH Minus helps maintain water sanitation and safety.
Test the Water: Use a reliable test kit or test strips to measure the pH level in your hot tub. The ideal pH level for spas is between 7.2 and 7.8. If the pH is above this range, you may need to add pH Minus.
Calculate the Dosage: Based on the test results and your hot tub size, determine how much pH Minus you need to add. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for accurate dosing.
Add the pH Minus: Add the required amount of pH Minus to your hot tub water. If using a granular form, sprinkle it evenly across the water’s surface. If using a liquid form, pour it slowly into the water while the jets are running to help with even distribution.
Allow Circulation: Let the hot tub water circulate for several hours to ensure that the pH reducer is fully dissolved and evenly mixed.
Retest the Water: After the water has circulated, retest the pH to ensure it has fallen within the desired range (7.2 to 7.8). If necessary, add more pH Minus in small increments until the desired pH level is achieved.
Regular Maintenance: Regularly test your hot tub water to monitor pH levels, especially after adding other chemicals or after heavy use. Adjust the pH as needed to keep your water balanced.
Using pH Minus for your hot tub ensures your water stays in the optimal pH range, preventing scale buildup, corrosion, and irritation. Regular use of pH reducers keeps your water clear, safe, and comfortable for every soak.
